What's your favourite purred food

Hi Wildorchids, I went slightly ahead of my surgeons guidelines as I was feeling so well and had pretty much anything so long as I chewed it to apple sauce consistency. I'm 4 weeks out now and am officially permitted to do that. I mainly had Weight Watcher ready meals but didn't eat the carb half of the meal, apart from when it came to sausage and mash (yum) I'd have half of the whole meal and save the other half for another day! biggrin.gif

I'm trying to add more veg as I find so much Protein is constipating (I didn't experience the 'never trust a fart' problem), so tinned carrots are the ticket for me right now as they're pretty mushy and only take a few seconds to heat in the microwave.

I haven't gotten too far into the pureed stage yet (had my first soft-boiled egg today). But, here were the suggestions sent by my friend who recently had the sleeve:

Yogurt with no fruit chunks (mix in a little unflavored Protein Powder too. Not too much or the yogurt will get liquidy and weird).

Unsweetened applesauce.

Scrambled egg beaters - this will taste so good to you right now :) No chunks of anything like peppers or onions though :( Egg only. And even mash it up more with your fork before eating it.

Refried Beans, oh yum. Fat free taco bell ones are great (from the store, not actually from taco bell.) Heat them up with a little shredded cheese melted on top.

Cottage cheese.

ANYTHING else you want... as long as it is made into a really soft consistency. You can use a blender or food processor. It sounds yucky but really it's not so bad. You can even do tuna or chicken salad right now... but only if you have processed it to be much more mushy. No chunks of anything.

Thanks for starting this thread because I am technically in the stage but I have been afraid to eat. My Nut just kept saying eat moist protien. She said tuna, salmon, chicken all moistend with gravy or Soup or light mayo. I have had a few bites of scrabled egg beaters, egg whites scrambled, tuna with light mayo, applesauce, and a little turkey on christmas day but I am a bit scared of much more... Cant wait to put a half a bannana in my Protein Shake. Any one know when I can do that?

      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.

      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! 😞
