bookgirl1972 got a reaction from Jennifer Rogers in So Tire of Clear Liquids!
I am in the puréed phase and feeling the same thing. I was desperate to leave clear and then full liquids behind. But am now going through the same feelings again. Tonight at least I went out for dinner and just had Soup. I only had the broth, but being able to have some of that normalcy of ordering normal food, Even though I only had the liquid, really made it easier. I think for me it's finding A way to make it more normal, and less deprived will help get me through it. But it is VERY hard mentally to go through these phases,

I am a newbie but 43 lbs in less than two months sounds amazing. Try to stay positive.

bookgirl1972 got a reaction from SimplySue in October 2014 sleevers check in please!
Hi, I just joined the forums. I had my sleeve done on October 21 and doing good so far. I'm curious to see what everyone is eating and also how fast people are returning to work.

Pasta-less lasagna: cooked chicken breast, ricotta cheese, and spaghetti sauce - puree in the blender to the right consistency. Good warm or cold. I used equal parts chicken and ricotta and used the sauce to get to the right texture. Added extra italian seasoning and garlic and some parm cheese, too.
tuna salad: albacore tuna, relish and lowfat mayo blended to the right texture. I used homemade zucchini relish, which is pretty zippy since it has curry powder in it. 1 can of albacore to 3/4 cup of relish was good for me, with just enough mayo to bind it. Blended it down to the texture of dip.
These are my 2 favorite go-to Protein meals for weeks 3-4. Hummus is good too, especially if you need some Fiber.
