Hey Guys!! Anyone else have this issue. I was a month on liquid and now I’m in the second month of only purée foods. But after my first week of puréed I gained 3 pounds?? I freaked out a bit. I’m eating 500 calories at most is that too much?

I wouldn't worry too much about the weight gain. Even at 2 months out I'll fluctuate 1-3 pounds either way throughout the week. It's likely Water retention and it will level itself out.

500 calories doesn't seem like a lot. My nutritionist advised to focus on Proteins first and foremost. On my 2nd follow up appointment later this month they are going to give me a template on calories, carbs, etc.

Just stick to the foods you can eat, try to get the 60-80 grams of Protein and try to make sure it's quality protein too.

You're doing fine. I worry a lot too but it you are doing what your doctor said, you will be ok.
