I'd also like to know this. I'll be on mush in a few days. I've already tried some Malt-o Meal and mashed potatoes and they went down fine so I'm just going to skip the blender week and go right to the mushed week. I mashed up some clam chowder yesterday and had that, it was pretty good. I just chewed up the clams really well.

The nurse gave me a paper with some stuff on it. Yours might read the same, but here we go.

Soft cooked noodles in sauce.

Creamy Peanut Butter.< /p>

Ground meat with sauce - Like manwich.

Fish without breading.

Sliced deli meats.< /p>

Sliced cheese.< /p>

Chili.

canned tuna/chicken/beef.

Toasted breads.

Melba toast.

Crackers

and dry Cereal.< /p>

I'm gona try some noodles and alfredo sauce tomorrow for lunch and see how it goes.

Well I couldn't have carbs. So did eggs in about a hundred ways like scrambled, omelets, and eggs benedict without the muffin. and cottage cheese and that I mixed with salsa to give flavor when I got tired of it. I didn't have many choices and the Protein made me feel full, so I was good with that. Lots of broth too.

I still for the most part dont eat a lot of carbs, they are evil and wind up making ya hungry.

It wasn't easy, but it's been worth it.

I roasted some vegetables in the oven - red peppers, onions, yellow squash, roma tomatoes - and then put them in the blender along with some chicken broth, salt, pepper and a little jalapeno relish. Pulverized it all and then heated it back up on the stove.

Another one involved sauteeing a chicken breast, then placing that and some of the aforementioned roasted veggies into the blender with a raw egg and a bit of Tomato sauce. Again, pulverized it to a pulp and then reheated it. Almost mousse-like in consistency, but good flavor and high in Protein.< /p>

Last one - my wife made meatloaf, mashed potatoes and carrots for the rest of the family. I'm partial to her meatloaf, so I pulverized it in the blender along with some cooked carrots and added that to some mashed potatoes. I'm sure I overdid the carbs that day, but the result was mushie and good. Good luck!

Lasagna cup

1/4 c low fat cottage cheese

1/4 c spaghetti sauce

1/4 c shredded mozzarella

Optional Parmesan cheese 2 Tbsp (I think because I don't use it)

Mix cottage cheese and spaghetti sauce and microwave for about 30 seconds or to desired hotness. Sprinkle cheese on top and microwave about 30 seconds more.

It is so yummy and a life saver for a picky eater like me.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
