Starting pureed food for two weeks

[over65 133]

Had first puree yesterday. Canned tuna with a little lite mayo and whipped it up food processor. Went down easy without any issues but definitely felt the restriction for first time. Plan to try egg salad, sardines, canned chicken, and avocado instead of mayo and ricotto bake. Will continue with Protein Shakes to get in all my Protein. After weeks just liquids, this will be great change.

Just remember to take your time with each bite chew it nice...

You can verify if these are on your approved food list:

Mashed potatoes

Creamy Peanut Butter

String cheese

Mashed banana

Non-Fat yogurt

Mashed (soft scrambled) eggs

I'm getting Protein from these sources and reducing shakes to 0 or 1 per day. I like the shakes, but I feel I'll do better getting protein from natural sources instead of processed foods.

I used shakes for months and it worked out great for me
