Hi Everyone. I’m curious to know what a whole day of purée foods looks like. Can you give me some ideas? Thanks in advance.

Here's a day for me:

Breakfast: 1/4 cup malt-o-meal or oatmeal made with skim milk

mid-morning: 1/2 Protein Shake

lunch: cottage cheese with applesauce, refried Beans with cheese, cream Soup (1/4 cup)

mid-afternoon: 1/2 Protein shake

dinner: chicken and mashed potatoes with a bit of gravy, tuna and a mushy vegetable (carrots, peas)

if needed: greek yogurt, SF pudding with Protein Powder (1/4 cup)

I got a sample meal plan from my nut and have been following that---it's been plenty of food, even though it seems like such a tiny amount! The protein shake helps me hit my protein goal.

I have one more appointment next week and I’m done with my requirements. I think the purée stage will be difficult for me due to the texture of it all. I think I would rather have liquids than puréed good.

      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.
