Mushy Question



Recommended Posts

Ok, so i have never actually put meat in a blendar and then ate (drank?) it. Please tell me you eat it....

Anyhow, what are the best meats to blend and what should they be blended with? I assume they should be cooked first, then blended with some form of liquid or sauce. but maybe not? Need some ideas here.

thanks.

I put chicken and turkey in my chopper and added broth or a light mayo...my dr said he allowed the mayo cause it was such a small amount..i made it a lot thinner then pre-band of course.

The thought of baby food style meat was just too horrible. For mushies I ate things like tuna, ground beef etc - things that could be mashed with a fork - oh and lots of veg.

i only puree certain things others where never ment to be eaten that way lol i ate oatmeal with fruit with milk so it was soupy. grits and scrambled eggs. refried Beans with cheese, mashed potatoes, SF pudding, SF Jello, i've pureed swedish meatballs with rice, and spaghetti with sausage and ground hamburger and those were good! plus lots of veggies

So my next food stage is pureed and blenderized.......it says I can have cooked blended meats. (I do not eat fish or seafood). Ground beef, chicken, turkey are not introduced until the stage after this one. So I am guessing this is like a smooth chicken salad. (I was so excited to move to the next stage - not so much any more)

The next stage also incudes blenderized Wendy's chili, hummus, refried Beans - low fat, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes etc.............

Guess I can look forward to the Soft/Moist Stage...........it has been a month of liquids, what is another 7 days.

I bought a rotissere chicken and yes put it in the magic bullet - not for long. I did about 3oz of meat, 1/2 oz on cheese and a few teaspoons of chicken gravy.........gave that thing a whirl and at the time after over a month of liquids, it was pretty awesome. I remember my first meal I just sat there smiling. Having said that, it is the consistancy of thick Peanut Butter and you don't really chew it, but it is not liquid and it tastes like chicken and was oh so good.

For mushies I had low fat cottage and ricotta cheese (add smooth spagetti sauce for a pastafree lasagna). Had canned chicken and tuna with low fat laughing cow cheese mixed in, which you can microwave. Also for mushies I used a stick blender to mince the fruit in Greek yogurt (which has twice the Protein of regular yogurt).

I just had the lapband done on the 11th of this month and I am SO tired of chicken broth. I am so ready for the mushy stage (lol). Does anyone have any recommendation on what to eat? I heard I can have mash potatos and gravy but what else can I enjoy?

My favorite mushy foods: Part skim ricottia cheese, topped with Tomato sauce and grated parmasagne cheese. Nuke it up in the microwave . taste like a noodleless lasagne.

Canned tuna (white albacore in water) 2 oz. mixed with 1 wedge of laughing cow lite cheese

Refried Beans ( 2 oz.) topped with shredded reduced fat yellow cheese, dopple of lite sour cream - in the microwave - mmmm

Fresh avacado (2-3 oz) topped with Mango Salsa

ahhh, there are just so many things you can do with mushy......

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
