I loved deviled eggs at that stage! Sorry that's not a good suggestion but I didn't eat much at that stage, eggs and canned chicken were my go too.

When I was on soft foods I ate refried Beans with cheese, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, tuna, grilled salmon, etc. I didn't have room for much more than the Protein. I did start having some green Beans on occasion, but I certainly wouldn't have had room for mashed potatoes (plus, I avoid starches).

The World According To Eggface blog has some recipe ideas for the soft phase.

It's not something I would have made before the surgery but I sure enjoyed it as one of my first solids!

I made the ricotta bake and liked that a lot. But mostly I ate cottage cheese, yogurt, hummus and tofu plus chicken broth with unflavored Protein.< /p>

One of my favorite things I've had so far:

A grill pack made if squash, zucchini, and onion. Grilled in foil until soft. SO GOOD!

-Tilapia.. skillet cooked in cooking wine with blackening seasoning.

-Sloppy Joe with ground turkey or high grade ground beef.

-baked potato with shredded chicken breast.. shredded low fat cheese.

-Baked sweet potato

-Egg white omelette with mushrooms, onion, ham, and cheese.< /p>

-beef sticks or Jerky.

-Tuna salad

-Salmon patties

....just some of the things I've made and handled well.

....oh... and sugar free vanilla pudding with bananas .. top with no sugar added cool whip!

I would put tomatoes and other veggies with my eggs. Cottage cheese us good in Protein as well. a little parm cheese in with the eggs. I just explored on my own with my foods. Its a hit and miss really. some people cant stomach certain things after surgery, me for one. I cant eat rice anymore not even a grain, comes right back up.

I really did not care for grits before. Now i love them. Follow cooking method on package. close to the end of the cooking process add an egg and mix it. Adds creaminess. So good

      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.
