Mashed Cauliflower during puréed phase?



Recommended Posts

I guess the subject says it all! I have my follow-up with the doctor this week, so I’m sure I could ask then, but I’m just curious what you guys have done. Seems like a good idea, net carbs are low and I could add Protein Powder.< br />
Any reason this might be a bad idea?

ive never had that but i had mashed potatoes (instant kind) and i am currently in the purred phase and had no issues. it was on my list of approved stuff. It only said to make them a bit runny

I didn’t think of it during the purée phase but I’m sure it’s fine. We were allowed to purée any food to the right consistency and it’s basically puréed cauliflower.

I pureed entire family dinners and definitely had some cauliflower in those with no problem at all. Hope it agrees with you - I looove cauliflower - just had some with my lunch! :)

I just could not eat cauliflower mashed on its own, it smelled so bad and looked vile but in with other things it was ok. TBH I preferred Broccoli.

I didn't eat it during my pureed phase but I did during my soft phase.

I made cauliflower mac-n-cheese. I also made buffalo cauliflower in the air fryer. (no breading).

Both sat very well with me and were very good!

I finally had some mashed, which I’ve always loved, and absolutely could not stand the smell or taste. Hoping I come back around to cauliflower in general as things progress! Buffalo sounds so good right now!

Opposite for me, I didn't mind it before but it wasn't my go to veggie. Now I love it and eat it a lot and different ways.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
