Your favorite mushie proteins



Recommended Posts

Hello! I was banded on 1/28 and am now eating mushies. I was hoping to get from everyone their favorite mushies that they ate for Protein. Did anyone blend up chicken, and if so, would you mind sharing how you cooked and what spices you used to make it palatable?

Have a wonderful day!

my favorite mushie is fat free refried Beans with a sprinkle of grated cheese and a small dollop of light sour cream. So good! If you like mexican food, that is. I don't even really miss the chips.< /p>

I tried to blend chicken and it made me gag. Not a band gag, but just a "omfg that's nasty" gag.

My favorite mushies were:

  • Refriend Beans, black or pinto, preferrably of a spicy & fat free variety. I may or may not have added sour cream, cheese, hot sauce, and chili verde.
  • Hummus
  • Edamame puree with garlic and butter
  • Cottage cheese
  • Really wet meat (chicken, tuna, etc.) salads

And probably a few others I've forgotten.

My favorites were, in no particular order:

fat free refried Beans with a little sour cream

cottage cheese with chives

scrambled eggs (or eggbeaters)

eggbeaters omelet with cheese

Fage yogurt with a little honey

tuna/crab/or salmon mixed with mayo and a little relish

crabcakes

baked ricotta (ricotta mixed w/a little eggbeaters and parmesan, topped with pizza sauce and mozzarella).

The idea of pureeing meat kind of grossed me out...

      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.
