  • When you puree foods do you just put them in the blender together? Or do you need a food processor or something. Im not a good cook so I dont know much about cooking.

If you are just starting purees, 2-3 oz of food is probably going to make you full. If you puree the ground beef in some kind of liquid (tomato sauce maybe?), then it should be okay to eat. I really liked refried beans with some cheese in them during purees. I also pureed some Wendy's chili and some dinty moore beef stew to eat. A few teaspoons was more than enough of any of them.

I made my kids taco's the other day and I took about 4 oz of plain ground beef and mixed it with Unjury cheese sauce( 20 grams of protien) and it tasetd great just like a nacho soup without the chip. I did not eat the whole 4 oz though.

Definately eat slowly and have 2-3oz. I'm still on that. I was rushing to class and had a tablespoon of pureed ground turkey in spinach soup, swallowed and it felt really stuck in my chest- kinda painful. I froze and turned to the sink and threw it up. Lesson learned! Take your time, chew and take small portions.

Thanks guys. And I just put my food in my ninja or magic bullet. Just any food processor. I feel like I can eat way too easily. It's been a week post opp and I had a scrambled edd with cheese for breakfast and 3oz of lean taco meat with some cheese for lunch. Had a couple no sugar added fudge pops. Had 2 protein shakes. And I feel fine. I could probably eat more but don't wanna push it. I hope this is ok.
