      I had to wait for 3 months I think? I bought some CHIKE protein' powder and it cured a bit of the cravings. It's coffee flavored, and along with some SF syrup and ice, it tasted like a frappacino. It did the job and helped me meet my protein; requirements, too.

      Agreed. The mocha and coffee flavors of Chike protein powder are outstanding.

      I use Unjury. I like to sprinkle the chicken soup flavor powder on anything savory.

      I liked all the Quest flavors as well..........as far a pre-mixed, the EAS low carb were good too. I also enjoyed the Unjury chicken soup flavor....it really helped when I got sick of sweet!

      I'm 3 years out from my RNY and I still have a hard time with meat. I eat alot of beans. Chili Beans, Pinto beans I am just so happy I love beans. I eat Split Pea soup also cheese and refried beans also. I am now able to have tortilla's so I have a low carb burrito with cheese green taco sauce and a little sour cream. There are so many different types of beans. I also make some Taco soup with kidney beans chickpeas and some spices it is yummy and pretty soon the weather will be just right for soups.

      Are your purees runny, so they fall off the spoon? Have you just started them, as for me it took about 3-4 days for my healing stomach to adjust to purees. And yes, if it continues, definitely call your surgical team. Good luck!

      They're not as runny, more like mash potatoes consistency.

      I actually bought baby food (banana flavor) and I had no problem.

      I will go buy baby spoons tomorrow, I forgot my Dr. recommended it.

      yes today 9/8/16 was my first day on puree so I hope it was because I haven't ate solids in weeks.

      I hope my stomach gets use to it or l'll call my Dr soon.

      I used to add stock (chicken stock) to my savoury purees, as well as runny yoghurt. The purees really need to be runny. Your stomach is still healing, and after liquids it needs runny purees. Try it and see if it makes a difference. My NUT said the puree has to run/fall off the spoon easily. Good luck. It is the first day, so go slowly and gently with it.

  9. I'm craving Avocadoes so bad! :(

      Why can't you have some? If you can have puree - mix some avocado with eggs or just have some on it's own.

      Going to the grocery today, getting some avocados! I found a recipe for a cauliflower 'cake' with a poached egg and mashed avocado on top. It looks and sounds heavenly!
