Soft Solid Foods Question



Recommended Posts

I'm in the soft solid food stage. I know that many people eat chili at this point and I'd love to do that, too! Do I need to worry about Tomato seeds or I am overthinking the "no seeds" rule? (I'm emailing my NUT but was curious what the vets think.)

Seeds were a no-no during clear and full liquids on my program (first two weeks). Not sure how quickly your program advances you to soft foods- probably a good idea to call your NUT.

You may need to make your chilli with puréed tomatoes to avoid seeds. Chilli is on my list for soft stage, but seeds are still prohibited. You could also use chopped or crushed just make sure no seeds. Most crushed that I buy don't have seeds

I use Tomato sauce in mine because my family does not like bits of tomato. Try that :)

Use Tomato juice in place of your tomatoes if you're not allowed the seeds!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
