I just started the pureed phase yesterday and I'm so happy that I've been pureeing things for the last month and vacuum sealing them in little pouches and freezing. Yesterday was shrimp and spinach, today is asparagus and strawberries. Not mixed...eww

Just a word of warning ... I prepped just as you did, had a house full of purees on hand. And I ate about 10% of them. I donated or threw away 90%.

You will really be eating very little at this point. I still spent a lot of my day drinking Protein Shakes, to get the minimum in. That didn't leave a lot of time or stomach room for purees.

I'm currently in stage 2, and buying a tub of plain yogurt and mixing it with a tablespoon of the fruit purees are my favorite. I can't do the baby food, I just make regular food and stick it in my food processor.

I make one scrambled egg and eat less than half , it fills you up so quick it’s insane . But I missed my mashed potatoes and eggs lol so good but it’s such a waste since I can’t eat anything I’m just always full !

      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.
