Hey everyone, I was banded 4/23/12 and as of this Wednesday I will be able to eat soft foods. I was wondering what has everyone found that is good to eat that is soft?

sugar free pudding, cream soups, fat free yogurt, fat free cottage cheese, boiled carrots

i start pureed tm is that the same as soft food? id like some ideas also

runny oatmeal, cottage cheese, blended up soups, mashed potatoes, pureed fruits and veggies. I just started them today but loving more flavor.

Awesome thanks.

I was banded on 4/24/2012 and Im doing full liquid which includes, runny cererals, Im doing baby rice cereal, protein shakes (whey protein and soy milk), sugar

free puddings, jello and I can have blended veggies, which I havent had yet but will try tonight alone with some clear broth to make it a cream soup. Someone else posted that they used some clear broth and put two tea or table spoons of instant mash potatoes to make a cream soup. Good luck!

So far i'm living on mashed fish, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, and ff greek yogurt...

I puree chicken noodle soup. Also, cream of wheat is good. Doc says I can have runny grits but haven't tried that yet. he says as long as I can put it in a blender, it is ok. Good luck!

I agree with "Mrs. Monique" my Nutrionist told me as long as I used my blender or food processor, I could add several different foods during the "mushie" stage . . . a few exceptions: NO bread, potatoes. You can sort the food list on www.lapband and search for some really GOOD recipes. Good Luck!

Thanks everyone.
