Digesting during puree stage



Recommended Posts

I'm in stage 2 puree. And im finding it difficult when I try to eat. It just feels like everything is sitting in my throat. And it makes me not want to eat at all. Any tips on how to make this easier?

I just started purees as well, and I've found that making sure they are fairly thin, and relatively lump free helps. I also eat very, very slowly. 2oz of low fat cottage chees took me a solid 20min to get down. If you find that you're not quite ready for purees, go back to full liquids for another day or two. Just go slow, chew well, and be patient with yourself.

it depends on what you are eating and the amount, also if its too dry.

It takes me an hour or two currently to get 2oz of puree down

the only food that gives me the stuck in throat feeling are eggs but others like it might too

you might also not be ready for it

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
