tiggerfan0464 0 Posted July 3, 2008 Yes...I love Wendy's chili....If you are on mushy stage...great idea to put into blender. Also try refried Beans with salsa/chicken stock blended....another keeper is Sloppy joe in the blender....YUM! Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KayleighsMommy 16 Posted July 3, 2008 Yep, I keep looking at my manual. I am soooo afraid of eating the wrong thing. My doctor had 3 day clear liquid preop, first week Clear liquids (with Protein drinks) and week 2-4 mushies. I have a postop appt tomorrow at 9AM. I will verify this with the surgeon before I go shopping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PTinUtah 0 Posted July 3, 2008 I tried alot of chili during my mushie stage and I have to say Wendy's was the best tasting. Hmmm that sounds good right now!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laurinda 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Yep Wendy's chili is "da bomb" Even now many months later I order it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fairysaddle 0 Posted July 3, 2008 Absolutely! I never tried Wendy's, but I did homemade chili several times. It is awesome on a saltine! My doctor allowed saltines during mushies. They made the mushy stage for me. Mushies sound a little too much like baby food. Ick. But dip! Well, I can seriously get into dips. Just be careful if you are watching carbs. It's easy to get carried away with the saltines. (I use the multi-grain ones, btw.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danikagold 0 Posted July 3, 2008 A small Wendy's chili (only eat about half at a time) is my quickie. I love it. I never did blend it, even on the mushie stage I just chewed it well. I really feel in touch with my band and my body, so I kind of know what I can do and can't do and pick up on any signals as I am going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KelinTx 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Wendy's Chili is one of my favorite things to have since being banded. It tastes great...very filling...and at 210 calories and 15 G Protein in a small how can ya beat it! I indulge at least once a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiggerfan0464 0 Posted July 3, 2008 With Wendy's chili also pick up a side salad and make a taco salad...YUMMO There will be enough for 2 meals. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LB4Life 0 Posted July 3, 2008 I have heard wonderful things about Wendy's chili and I'm not surprised considering all the protien in it. I always laughed at my mom who ate it everytime we went there (while I was eating greasy breaded chicken sandwiches and "super-sized" fries) and since she follows weight watchers I know it's a healthy/low-calorie food choice. I will definately be getting it in the future when I can eat solids :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
