spices or sauces in pureed diet



Recommended Posts

Can I eat curry or buffalo sauce in purred diet phase?

I saw a recipe for low fat pureed buffalo chicken and another for pureed curry sweet potatoes that looked good.

Right now I dislike anything sweet and love things that are savory

Any thoughts?

Hey Jamieq!! I am not an expert and am only on my 6th day out but what I was given does not specifically exclude spicy. I would just start on the mild side and work my way to a little more as you see how it affects you!! Hope you get there!!

I had no trouble with spicy stuff and sauces in pureed phase. Just be sure that if you are adding sauce to something, you know exactly how much you are adding so you can account for it in your daily allowance of calories, carbs, fat, etc. Some of those sauces will be very calorie-rich and you want to be careful with them, as even small amounts can add up quickly.

I was told at the pureed stage that spices were fine but sauces were a no no. Actually that advice is repeated by my clinic coordinator for every phase up through the first year.

If the Protein is served in a sauce try and scrape it away as much as possible. Avoid red sauces all together because the prepared ones contain sugar. If you want to make a Tomato sauce at home just be sure to not add sugar to the ingredients.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
