10 Days Post Op

[momwifestudent 2]

Hey everyone! I'm currently 10 days post op and feeling loads better. I get really tired at different points in the day but this afternoon I was up for 3 hours cleaning my kitchen and cooking a bit. The pain is much better these last two days as well.

I'm extremely tired of pureed foods. All I want is to chew something lol. I've also been searching for some different recipes that will help me mix things up a bit. What are/did you all eat during the month long baby food diet?

I'm also struggling with not being able to pick up my 20 month old. I miss her so much! I have a 4 year old as well but she doesn't seem to be as affected as the toddler.

I puréed and added unflavored Protein powder to every kind of Soup I could find (that didn't contain rice or noodles)....cream of shrimp, lobster bisque, butternut squash, split pea, French onion, bean with ham, ginger Thai, Chinese hot and sour, Tuscan chicken broth, cream of asparagus, broccoli cheese, chili, etc.

Also had refried Beans with melted cheese, soft scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, hummus, plain Greek yogurt flavored with Protein Powder and/or Torani syrups, mashed potatoes with unflavored Protein Powder, homemade guacamole, egg salad, and pureed tuna fish with mayo and mustard. And of course still drinking Protein shakes through all the stages.

During my puree stage, I kinda figured that my teeth were pretty much the same as a blender. With some soft foods......I just really chewed them up good in my mouth and........voila.....pureed.
