I've been on the puréed stage since Thursday. I've been eating soft scrambled eggs a lot.

I also puréed a roast that I had made my family (1oz meat, 1oz potato and 1oz carrot). That lasted me three meals worth.

Yesterday I made grilled chicken with trader joes harvest salsa and blended that to a purée. I mashed an avocado with some salt and pepper and put a tablespoon of that with it! I have four meals worth and probably will have lots of avocado leftover.

meat puréed looks gross but it smells and tastes delicious. (I had my mom and boyfriend taste each, and both liked it)

And I was very scared of this stage pre-op (I'm very picky with textures and they used to make me gag) but after the liquids for 13 days, I was very much looking forward to something else!

The Next puréed dishes on my agenda are the refried bean recipe and the ricotta bake on here somewhere as well as I have done butternut squash and apples that I will bake with some spices and purée with either pork or chicken.

The ricotta bake is delicious. I used this recipe:

I'm having a hard time eating pureed meat so I have been eating alot of mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs and fat free refried Beans.

Refried Beans with melted cheese and sour cream. A lady that works at my surgeons office and had the surgery told me to try it and it's definitely getting me through this stage. tuna, egg, or chicken salad as long as it's very mushy. I also eat loaded baked potato Soup as well and blend the Soup so their are no chunks

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
