Tanj 2 Posted July 30, 2017 Yes, it is normal to be put on puree diet after any bariayric surgery. The stomach staple line has to heal and chunks of food can get caught and cause terrible complications. Follow the diet to the utmost, also consult your medical staff with any questions and concerns! Puree is a very normal and safe phase. My surgeon advanced me to a soft diet after 30 days. Dont worry!

NikkiWorldJourney 70 Posted July 30, 2017 You had said on the purée you were eating eggs and tuna and cheese. Those were not allowed on my purée diet. Those were 4 weeks out for me on the soft food diet. I'd be curious how many leaks/abscesses they have with that diet at only two days out. Did they give you a leak test before the diet started? 1 southernbellair79 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have had none. I'm the second case ever with the abscess. Btw anything can be puréed with a food processor. Seems you need to do more research past what ur doctors did because I did going in myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NikkiWorldJourney 70 Posted July 31, 2017 You never said you puréed the food. You originally came on in severe pain and people were suggesting some things to look into that might help. I am the queen of research. I'm a badass researching Mom so don't even try it. None of us that were asking about the food were insulting you we were just offering something to look into. If you don't want anybody commenting why post at all. I'm very sorry your going through complications. I do hope you feel better soon. And why would you purée cheese or even how. The number one suggestion for complications and pain is to step back on food to liquid and call your Surgeon. You said yourself they pushed on your stomach and sent you home even though you had a fever. Doesn't sound right. 6 Sleeveed, southernbellair79, qy22 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For someone who is having so many complications and cannot be worried about food phases he has plenty of time to bash anyone that tries to give words of encouragement. 2 Sleeveed and Goggyween reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle Lukas 29 Posted July 31, 2017 Don't take offense to suggestions. Seems you were insulted and took it personal. Im confused on someone who does so much research doesn't realize everything on a purée diet is puréed? So I'm suppose to say every food name is suppose be followed by the word purée?

Goggyween 38 Posted July 31, 2017 Also are there any recipes for pureed foods? Isn't it food that is put in a blender? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Excuse me for asking a question. I just never pureed any of my food. I did a lot of smoothies. And of course, we all do a lot of research.

I was really searching - those places that are like hangover refreshers, they cost upwards of $350. But I found a little naturopathic doctor who offered it for $150. It's what I would have spent on food for myself last week, right?? 1 southernbellair79 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
