First bites of actual food gone bad!



Recommended Posts

I started on my pureed stage today. My doctor told me I'm allowed to add in creamy Soups, tune, blended chicken and blended fish. I gave tuna a try with a bit of mayo. I had about 2 oz with two crackers. Chewed it a bunch of times until mush and then swallowed. Not even 10 min later I threw it up. Did this happen to anyone else? Not I'm afraid and just want to continue with my fluids

Hey @BeautyQueen218, I am sorry that your first bite of food was so difficult. I wish I could offer some advice but I am just out of the hospital today. Let me just ask you one question: Could it be that the two crackers caused the difficulty? Perhaps try just eating the 2oz of tuna with mayo only?

I didn't know crackers is part of the pureed phase...

So that's what it was. I couldn't help myself y'all. But I appreciate all the replies and will stay heavily away from crackers lol

It's all good. This is a learning experience and it will continue to be for quite some time. How do feel when you eat food without the breads?

Well in the morning I had a very soft scrambled egg and it stayed down. So I'm pretty sure it was most likely the crackers. I'm just not a fan of textures and the pureed stage has been hard for me. I literally just want to stay on liquids to avoid the mushy foods. [emoji23]

I’m doing unsweetened apple sauce, mashed potatoes (instant only made with water), plain yogurt (no or low sugar), and oatmeal.

This is very understandable. I don't like mushy texture either. Before surgery I once tried some canned chicken mixed with brown mustard. That was good. I think I could easily handle that once it's time for puree.

I love mashed potatoes. For your oatmeal what type of milk do you use?

I just got some canned shredded chicken yesterday I might try it with mustard, sounds pretty yummy. What about spicy foods? Like hot sauce? I wonder if I can have it already I'm all about the spice and I know it would add some great flavor to my food.

I can’t do milk now - so I use my strawberry cream flavored Protein Shake. It’s very good!

I also use my Protein shake in my coffee as Creamer. Yum!

      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.
