Just started purée phase last Thursday. Some ideas that worked for me are:

Starkist light tuna in the pouch

Hard boiled egg

Tablespoon fat free mayo

Teaspoon yellow mustard

Purée in my Ninja

3 turkey meatballs

5 tablespoons skim ricotta

1/2 cup fat free turkey gravy

Purée in my Ninja

3 turkey meatballs

5 tablespoons skim ricotta

Small can Hunts no salt added Tomato sauce

Purée in my Ninja

1/2 can fat free refried Beans

1/2 cup fat free sour cream

Just mix up with a spoon

Progresso Hearty Black Bean Soup

1/2 cup fat free sour cream

Purée in my Ninja

All of these make more than 1 serving. I put the extras in small plastic containers to heat for later. Also, I heat in microwave after I purée. I find it works better. I also discovered PB2 powdered Peanut Butter to add to Protein Shakes or really anything if you like peanut butter. I also use Isopure unflavored Protein powder and I mix it with Sugar Free Chocolate pudding for extra protein. You can't even taste it. I bought both on Amazon. Finally, my greatest find was Isopure green tea clear Protein Drink that comes in individual bottles at GNC. It is the only protein drink that I can tolerate right now. I love it! Just bought a case at my local GNC yesterday. Well worth the price for me right now. It has 40 grams of protein in one 20 ounce bottle. Can finish one in a day. Great if you like tea. Drink it cold with ice. Got my Ninja blender at Target.

Hope this helps some of you. Purée is soooooo much better than full liquid phase. I actually feel somewhat normal again.

Thanks for the ideas, even though I won't be there until 12/31. At least I'll start the new year off with a good bite of something :)

Purée is so much better than liquids! I start soft solids on Thursday. I puréed vegetable lasagna tonight and it was great! Hang in there. It does get better.

I've been drinking the isopure green tea just to meet my protein requirements. It's tolerable, but it gives me dry mouth.

Thanks for recipes.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
