Is it okay to eat baby food during the soft food/pureed food stage post op for gastric sleeve?

Sorry. YUCK!

As you can tell, I did not do well on pureed foods. I lived on yogurt, cream of wheat, cottage cheese and Protein shakes.

I also cannot eat bean and that is a really good source of Protein for those on purée stage. Most people talk about that and ricotta bake. Maybe if I had done baby food I would feel differently.

For me it was an aversion to the texture. Yuck. LOL. I could not wait for that phase to be over.

Best of luck......

baby food is fine. I never did it, though, because for some reason the thought of eating baby food turned my stomach (not sure why since it's just pureed food...)

It depends on your specific program and the kind of baby food. It is also very important to read labels carefully. Some baby food has a lot of sugar/carbs.

Personally, I found real, adult food was much more palatable.

No, it isn't "just" pureed food. It's a scourge. It should be declared unconstitutional. Anyone who feeds that swill to babies should be punished by having to eat it.

Some of the fruits are okay, though. Nothing else.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
