Any tips on what are good choices for "mushy" foods. My nurse said baby food is a good option. I was banded on 24 Oct.

Ewwww, don't eat baby food, that's gross.lol

I just made a big pot of Taco Soup and put a cup in the blender. Much better then baby food. You can make all kinds of vegetable dishes and put them in a blender. Fat free refried Beans, black beans. FF ricotta, marinara,ff cheese warmed in microwave.

I agree with Maddysgram. Just simply put your favorite, low fat/low carb foods in the blender and make it smooth, it is MUCH better than baby food. I made turkey chili today (canned for now) and just put it in the blender. It was great. I was banded on 10/24 too and am still on a full liquid diet, but I just got so tired of the normal full liquid, like cream Soup. I could tell my body was craving Protein, so the chili was perfect, perked me right up.

Baby's eat baby food, adults eat adult food. Blenderized anything - chicken, tuna salad, Wendy's chili, mashed potatoes (cautiously), sweet potato, mashed carrots, add blenderized cottage cheese to your Soup for more Protein, I was allowed well cooked Pasta - didn't have it but it was on my list.

good luck

Layer creamed spinach, creamed Tomato sauce and ricotta cheese. Heat it up, tastes like lasagna!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
