Vegetable Dreaming - Wanna Know....



Recommended Posts

I'm just sitting here thinking about vegetables (should I get my head examined?). When you go to a "regular" diet, what vegetables are easiest to digest? What did you start with? Was there a method you used to introduce others? Can you tolerate all? Are there veggies that some can never tolerate again? Just curious.....

I'm ready for veggies. I'm on purée stage and they don't sound appealing puréed at all.

yes, pureed veggies sound like puke. But some yummy grilled ones, that's another story.... :rolleyes:

I think some pureed veggies would be good.....things like pumpkin, yams or squash come to mind. They are already basically pureed once they are cooked!

I did the sweet potato and carrot baby food. You have to add some salt and I added a tiny bit of butter to make it not so bland. I make a green been Parmesan Soup that you basically boil the Beans in chicken broth and then blend. This helped with my veggie craving. Look up some easy blended soup recipes. I have made blended soup with a bunch of different veggies broccoli, butternut squash, spinach, arugula, asparagus, etc... Since you boil and then blend (I use immersion blender) great for mushie. Plus great Protein with chicken broth and cheese added.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
