I found frozen chicken cooked on the grill is the easiest way for myself to eat it. Very juicy, tender, and pretty much melts in my mouth without much chewing. Plus chicken Montreal seasoning cooked on it was like heaven to me. Good luck, hope you can find a way for you :0)

I ate canned chicken during puree stage. I didn't actually puree it, just mashed it with a fork. I ate it in the form of Buffalo chicken dip :)

Omg!! I luuuuuuuuuve buffalo sauce and what does my husband make the day I get home from the hospital? Buffalo chicken drumsticks. Now I don’t want to impose my own way on anyone in the family; I have two boys and a husband who love to eat but I mean was that absolutely necessary on the first day? Thanksfully I was feeling so blaaaah! that I didn’t even desire it. Bless his soul, he felt terrible afterwards! [emoji83][emoji172][emoji12]

I was sleeved 8/29, so I’m almost 7 weeks out and I still don’t really have an “appetite”. I eat because it’s time and to get the Protein in, but I haven’t truly felt hungry or craved anything yet. I’m sure I will at some point. I do understand though not wanting to chew. After weeks of liquids and mushy food it’s hard to start getting down the real foods. My only recommendation is to go slowly at first. Small bites.

Good luck!

I didn't like anything either except the pourable Beans in gravy the creams of Soup and thin mash potatoes which is not on the list but my favorite I'm very careful in making it thin close to portable but more mushy ....in fact I'm one week away from moving on to the must foods I'm glad on the fact of mash potatoes because brother pourables Ugggggggh

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
