Hi Amy and Carol thanks for the feedback .. same I was super hungry today n had small meals but I have to be mindful because it all adds up. Amy your allowed to feel the way you do and it's great your taking little steps...

hi everyone i hope all is going well? Is anyone starting to experience acid reflux? I ve never had this in my life and now experiencing a discomfort at times after i eat.

Awww.....great to see you @BLERDgirl....you're beautiful! You don't look your age at all!!!!
Gives me hope! I was worried about the same thing....????

Glad your feeling better carol. Yes testing times on what our stomachs can handle. My nutritionist always say keep chewing and eat slowly. Yet I have not mastered this kill very well.

Oh I love this recipe! Taste just like lasagna with out the noodles!! I'm making myself a papaya stuffed with crab. Put crabmeat, 1/2 mango, coconut Water, and a SMALL dash of balsamic vinegar(think sweet and sour) in blender and puree.I like spicy so I put a squeeze of srarachia sauce too Take the mixture and place in small ripe papaya that had been cut in half with the seeds removed .Or take a half of avocado remove pit take shrimp and in ketchup, horseradish sauce 1/2 envelope of stevia some lemon juice place in blender and puree and fill the avocado.

I was on liquids postop all through Christmas and New Years last year. Made festive flavored Protein shakes....vanilla pumpkin pie spice, cake batter gingerbread, vanilla eggnog, etc. Also had "rich" indulgent cream Soups like lobster bisque and butternut squash with added unflavored Protein Powder.< /p>

Sorry Mary I don't know any good processors have been using crock pots gor Soups and hand blender

Yum thank you Kymmuej for sharing. Happy holidays to you.

Hi everyone,
Being a newbie i was hoping if anyone can suggest some yummy puree recipes for Christmas and New Years.
Currently I am 2nd week into post op and on puree foods. It would be great to know what others did to keep themselves on track during
this festive season.

Christmas day is my last day on purees, of course - if I'd just been a day earlier! . But I've never been one to go overboard and gain a lot on the holiday (I went overboard all year long, lol). I'll probably stick to my new normal Breakfast and lunch, then have a little of the traditional stuff for dinner (puree some turkey, have a spoonful of mashed potatoes, maybe a deviled egg and call it a day). Then Friday, back to my regularly scheduled programming!

It's a very small amount of cheese.. You'll have tiny bits, chew them thoroughly and you should be fine, I just made one tonight and it was great and I feel great!! So good to have another option besides Soup and such! But if your concerned pls ask your doctor first! Enjoy!!

Yum thank you Kymmuej for sharing. Happy holidays to you.

Davis glad to hear your doing well too.

Benji I'm so glad you're doing so well. I have 14 hours to go.

Great Transformation

Hi Chris same at home and walking. It's really hard having a one year old who's clinging. Thank goodness for grandparents who are helping out. When I saw my little man I broke down in tears because this one reason for me to go through the gastric sleeve procedure. I m taking the meds buts difficult to swallow having to time it right cause it can be painful.
