ctdan 35 Posted October 12, 2017 I had my surgery on 9/25 and this post op diet is killing me. I was so excited to get to stage 3 pureed foods, then come to find out that they want a week of bland foods first, Then advanced pureed.I have no complications but they changed there rules in August. Ugh.I can't stomach muscle milk anymore and Soup is getting old. I need meat.< /p>Any ideas how to dress up ricotta and why is cottage cheese so salty? Anyway just needed to vent, as I am starting to lose my mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jess9395 5,449 Posted October 12, 2017 sugar free pudding mix, sugar free Jello, Torani sugar free syrups, flavored Protein Powder all dress up ricotta cheese in a sweet way. Pasta Sauce, seasoning packets (taco, chili, beef stew, etc) dress it up in a savory way.Trader Joe has unsalted cottage cheese. Or put a bit of pepper in it to lessen the salt. 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted October 12, 2017 During the first 2 months postop, the days just dragggeeedddd.. by Thursday I started reading the page for the next week's diet that would start on Monday. I didn't jump ahead, but it all just seemed to take forever! But, time passed, and by time I had enjoyed the regular diet for a week or two, it already seemed like ancient history. Use this time to learn as much as you can about postop nutrition so you can go forward in health and skinny-ness. Vitamins are a special topic that is underappreciated until a deficiency shows up. Sleeves and bypasses both need 'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isit5yet 37 Posted October 12, 2017 9/25 was my same surgery date. I added canned chicken to cream Soups. Some other things I'm eating now: tuna salad, egg salad, mashed avocado on liquid egg whites, vegetarian refried Beans, cream of wheat with skim milk and Protein power, sugar free Jello with protein powder, chicken salad (canned not just cooked), I've blended vegetable beef Soup, mashed sweet potato, cottage cheese, pureed baked eggplant with marinara.

That was the pre August plan with my Surgeon that I was looking forward too. Now it is just light yogurt, refried beans, ricotta cheese, and cottage cheese5'10 Sleeved 9/25/17 HW: 309 SW: 278 CW: 255 GW: 190 1 Debbie9966 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
