I still eat the pureed chicken salad that I made when I got the "all clear" for pureed foods.

I use canned chicken breast that I run through my food processor until it is almost the consistency of sand and then mix it with greek yogurt, hummus, salt, pepper, and a little garlic powder. Okay, I also throw in a tablespoon of gochujang because I like and can tolerate spice, but that is purely my preference. It comes out with a creamy consistency and went down fine for pureed phase.

Welcome to the forums.

All I did in my puree phase (first 6 weeks post-op) was take what I wanted to eat and throw it in the blender then eat.

I had curry chicken from our favorite Thai place. Fettuccini Alfredo (Chicken that had the barest amount of sauce and broccoli instead of the Fettuccini). I have no doubt I had BBQ, steak, whatever. These are the couple that stand out now 17 years later. I went for flavor, big flavor.

If it made sense to puree the whole thing together, it became a big blob. If it didn't make sense, a couple smaller blobs.

My Doc made a point of saying we didn't have to have "breakfast" food at Breakfast. We are adults, more or less, and we can eat what we want when we want, within plan of course.

      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.
