I bought baby food. I mixed the peas with clear chicken broth to a Soup texture. I loved it. Did NOT love the meats. ick, poor baby's. I liked the applesauce and pears. I haven't tried the carrots yet. Thought I would mix carrots with beef broth for a soup. I am loving eating soup broth and "creamed" W/ N/F milk. not cream. I am eating FF cottage cheeze. and have had 2 eggs so far. I like the cream of wheat W/baby food fruit. What I like is the jars are so small and I don't waste much. My husband will not eat FF or SF stuff. He does not need it. So, I try to find stuff in little jars for me and regular stuff for him. I am adjusting to this new shopping mode. I can make this work.

I am drinking the Protein EAS muscle builder. So far I have gotten one half bottle down a day. am working towards full. I am now off of mashed pots. I did not know they were a bad thing until I read it here!

As someone with a baby, I recommend Plum Organics baby food. It's in a pouch so you can squeeze out only a little a time if you want. They have it at Babies R Us. They also sell some purees called Revolution foods for toddlers.

I have tried the Plum and it is GREAT. My baby loves it so much more than the other kinds. I plan on mixing it with Protein powder once I get to mushies.

I've also been thinking about other mushy options. could I buy chicken Soup and just blend it up?

I made homemade chicken soup and blended it up. My doctor let me have it on the second week of liquids, but it was a little weird because of the chicken and all the different vegetables. It really didn't have a distinct taste...

They have a vegetable here in Nicaragua called pipian (it is like squash). My doctor told me I could boil it with a little Water and the add skim milk and blend it. It was great! I think the more items you blend the more confusing the taste, but hey anything is better than only liquids right?

I had the same bright idea..and bought one jar, it tasted terrible!! So, I used my Healthmate blender and pureed my own, much better. I don't see how you guys are going to get in your Protein, if you are eating pureed fruits..we were told to eat protein first, then veggies, then fruit. Anyhow, I wish I would have tried Unjury protein power in unflavored and not listed to anybody..because I couldn't tolerate artificial sweetners at all after surgery and had to drink milk until my stomach wasn't too sensitive anymore. The unjury web site has sample you can buy. I mix the unflavored with 32 oz of ice Water. I really can't taste it at all, and sometimes I mix in a pkt of EmergenC vit in orange flavor.

Just as a quick note so no one feels left out if they can't eat tuna, neither can I. Tuna and I don't mix right now. We used to be friends before surgery but I have been informed by my stomach we will not be eating tuna fish any longer. I will try again in 3 months or so.

I can eat other fish like salmon and mahi though so don't give up on all fish if one does not agree with you.

Oh I ate some baby food but I just pureed everything in my bullet. That was easier and I knew what was in it.

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

      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! 😞
