Best foods to introduce first?



Recommended Posts

This Saturday, Sept 17th, I will be 30 days post op and ready to introduce food back into my diet. Does anyone have recommendations about the best foods to introduce first?

Thanks much!

What does your surgeon recommend? Mine suggested mashed potatoes and ff gravy, Greek yogurt, refried beans... The potatoes were odd, but she had me use boxed, add protein' powder and I was only allowed 1-3 Tb per day with more gravy than potato. :)

Solids or soft pureed on your plan?

I started with Tilipia. Did fine with 2 oz. Solids don't seem to take as much as the purees to hit the satisfied point.

I lived on drinkable yogurt, Fage greek yogurt and premier Protein the first 2-3 weeks. When I moved to soft foods, I really enjoyed 1 or 2oz of salmon sashimi. It's so soft and flavorful and goes down comfortably. The ricotta bake is delicious - search for the recipe in the search bar on this site. Well-chewed cheese sticks are great too :)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
