Brave you are. I was banded the same day. It was somewhat difficult to watch everyone eat Christmas dinner, but in my heart I know this is what needs to be done and I feel ok with it. I am also excited to start more substance to this liquid diet. Next week, I am looking forward to soft mushy. Any ideas?

None at all. I didn't really Celebrate Christmas with my family this year. They are out of town and I couldn't drive yet. That made it easier. It is the first Christmas I have spent alone, but it wasn't too bad.

My brother lives with me and he needs this more than I, it was hard watching him and my mother eat Mexican food and queso right in front of me. Luckily he eats out most of the time so I don't have to watch him eat.

I haven't found anything yet. I have an app on my iphone for epicurious.com and typed in pureed. I found a good black been Soup recipe.
