What to do?

I am in the pureed stage of my post op diet. I have noticed that dairy makes me a little nauseous, but lasts just a short time. I moved to Fairlife milk as it is lactose free and twice as much Protein. Almond milk and soy milk made me really nauseous. I have tried the non- dairy Protein drinks and I just couldn't get them down so I just deal with it. I was looking for things to eat during this stage and a lot of people had suggested ricotta bake. I made this last night with some finely chopped ground turkey. I ate 2 ounces last night for dinner, and then 2 ounces for lunch today. It made me a little nauseous last night, but tasted really good. When I ate for lunch it came right back up. only got about half way through the 2 ounces. So I have two questions

How many times to you try something before you put it on the list of cant do anymore?

Since I only did about an ounce, should I eat again? I don't feel hungry or anything but I am barely getting 400 calories a day any only 60-70 of Protein.

Dairy can make many sleevers nauseous for quite a while, but it should (fingers crossed) get better as time goes on. If you know it bothers you, I would not keep trying it right now. Wait a few weeks/month and then give it another chance. I couldn't eat eggs for months; just threw it up every time so after three attempts I just stopped and waited a few months later until I was finally able to eat them around 5 months out. No sense subjecting yourself to a food your sleeve doesn't like constantly.

The modified milks like Fairlife and such are awesome so do keep trying those if they are working for you.

You are in puree stage, so it might be safe to try soft foods like scrambled egg or refried Beans if you chew them really really well. You could also try chicken Soup (or add some canned chicken to chicken soup) and puree it in a blender to make it break down all the chunks and that might help you get more liquid/protein.

I'm still on puree and I'm struggling to get Protein also. I only had nausea with yogurt and I just haven't eaten it again. I tried to sneak it in other foods and I didn't feel as bad. It's hard to find good foods. I have a ton of half eaten things in my fridge that I'm slowly circling back too
