Yum! You have some tasty sounding recipets Heather. I'm not sure hamburger qualifies as a mushy though. I know some people can't tolerate it even in the solid food stages. Still, you cook better than I do. My favorite cooked mushy foods were bean with bacon Soup and microwaved fish fillets! *laughs*

Bean with Bacon..do you just chew that good or have to mash it up? I love that soup. :)

My most scary moment was with mushies. I decided to mash in some fresh in season cherries. Slowly chewed the mushy fruit but somehow I missed a cherry pop and it got stuck. The pain was excruciating and nothing would move it. I ended up at a clinic being given a liquid to make vomit to try and dislodge it which eventually happened. But Even now three years later I cannot stand even the smell of cherries

I just wanted to post this little quick recipe that saved me during the pureed/mushy stage. It's real simple, Protein packed and really filling...and REALLY yummy!!

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup of Fat Free Refried Beans

2 Tablespoons (more if desired) of Low Skim Ricotta cheese

1/3 Cup Low Fat Grated cheese

1 Tablespoon Fat Free Sour Cream

Mix the first two ingredients together. Top with grated Cheese. Put in microwave for about a minute. Top with sour cream and enjoy!

Aprox Calories: 263

Aprox Protein: 19 Grams

Most of the time I could only eat half of this so I saved the rest for dinner. 263 calories is not bad for two meals! Enjoy!

Here's a crustless cheesecake recipe I made up. Of course you can nonfat sour cream, but I am fine with just the cottage cheese:

Servings 2Original Recipe Yield 2 small pie tins
Ingredients
  • 8 oz. non-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup sugar substitute (I use Whey-Low)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
  1. Cream the cottage cheese in a blender until smooth. Add egg and sugar substitute and vanilla.< /li>
  2. Take small (tart size) pie tin and spray with cooking spray.
  3. Cook at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

By the way I don't see many people comment on WheyLow--I love it.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
