What happens if you start puréed diet a day or two early?



Recommended Posts

I was just wondering what could happening switching to purée a day or so early? I feel like I am going to puke tasting my shakes now. My body has obviously have enough of that flavor.

There are more options than shakes on full liquids. What about Soup? V8?

True but they want 70g of Protein daily. That definitely limits Soups.< /p>

Everyone's program is different but I was on puréed the day I went home from the hospital. I only was on liquids for one day and even then they gave me meds crushed in applesauce while in the hospital. Check with your dr or nut.

I just boiled carrots, celery, onion, zucchini and ginger until mushy. Then I liquified them. I let that cook down to a nice bisque texture. I let it cool some and added unflavored pro turn powder. It tastes amazing and it's got Protein. Thanks for all the suggestions!

You can take what you just cooked (try a crock pot next time) and add nutritional yeast to it. It adds a "cheesy/bready (is "bready" a real word ? :) ) when mixed in. 2 TLBSP add 7-8 gr of Protein for only 40-45 cal.

"Try it--you'll like it!"

It sounds like you got this! BUT: wouldn't hurt to run it by your nutritionist, would it???? :)

Might I recommend "Bone Broth" and "Bone Stock" chicken and turkey flavors at whole foods pack 9-14g of Protein per 8oz. I started purées on a very thinned out yellow squash and/or zucchini blended with twice as much of this broth. I would start there and if you tolerate well you can always add a scoop of unflavored Protein Powder.

Of course sautéed the squash within an inch of its life first;-)

I would be afraid to try it! My nutritionist stressed the importance of following the phases to the letter so that the stomach can properly heal. But it really depends on how the first useful spoonfuls sit in your stomach. Good luck.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
