I'm supposed to start pureed tomorrow, but just couldn't stand to wait one more day so am currently having cottage cheese. Was soooo missing the savory side of things with all these sweet Protein Shakes and flavored drinks. Even the cream Soups weren't cutting it anymore. It's been 4 weeks of liquids total and I'm so ready to move on. I know there are a lot of recipes available for me to start trying, but what did you (or are you) all personally eating?

I have been eating cottage cheese, yogurt, refried Beans (pintos and cheese from Taco Bell are amazing!), Soup, egg salad, scrambled egg with cheese. I want to try the ricotta bake.

Thanks ladies. I'm getting my Water and Protein in but I just feel like I'm flying by the seat of my pants! I want this to work so bad and I'm afraid I'm going to screw something up

I'm an OB/NICU nurse and was wondering how you have done with staying hydrated on very busy days...you know, the ones where you don't have time to even sit down . How long were you out after surgery before you went back? TIA!

I'm a bit jealous of those if you who are allowed to eat! I'm still in Clear Liquids. I have an appointment tomorrow and I'm hoping to be allowed full liquids. Pain is gone and I haven't taken meds since Friday despite having to have a complex hiatal hernia repair at the same time as my sleeve. scale was down 9 lbs in a week so I won't complain!
