Meatballs are a good idea. Thanks! I start that in a week and am trying to collect ideas.

I love chicken so I make chicken broth and use it to blend my vegetables and the chicken. The way I do it is I use a deep pan, pour hot Water with the chicken, a piece of garlic, cilantro and a piece of onion with some salt. Then I add some vegetables like carrots, potato, brocoli or celeri. Let boil until the chicken is cook and the vegetables are soft. I just love it.

That's sounds delish. I can't wait to eat a little food. I'm so tired of Soups and Protein Drinks. Having a rough day today.

When do you start? When I was on liquids, my treats were the Jello and the sugar free popsicles. I love the popsicles.

I think my big concern with eating in the liquid-pureed phase (right after surgery) is that the Protein options are limited. And, I have discovered that I really don't like the Protein Drinks or the whey powders. So, I keep eating greek yogurt, cottage cheese and Soup made with milk. I enjoy all these things normally, but not so much under the circumstances.

Boiled egg with light mayo puree to be like deviled egg. Hormel complete meals with no bread or Pasta purée nicely' date=' I also brought Ruth's chicken and tuna salads they are already in a puréed state in the tub from store. Refried Beans and chili are good. Also frozen meatballs unthawed and purée topped with Alfredo, Tomato sauce or whatever you like. I like the meatballs because it is easier than browning ponds of beef at a time if rest of the family is having something else. Most meals the family has could be purée but is it healthy? And how will it appear purée is the catch![/quote']

Love the egg idea I love the stuffing deviled eggs. Also meatball idea great too. Thanks!

I can start purees this Thursday. Surgery was 12/10, came home 12/13 and I've been on full liquids since. Woke up sick to my stomach today and was dry heaving for a few minutes. But I slept later today and took my prevacid late. Once I got that down and my shakes i felt better.

But I truly feel I'm ready to start some food.

I do eat Jello and Popsicles. Just made. Some orange jello today

;-)

Somewhere on this site someone mentioned making deviled eggs but instead of using the yokes putting hummus in there. Delish! Can't wait to try that.

Ben & Jerry's has frozen Greek yogurt. Almost same calories as regular but taste like Ice Cream with 10 grams of Protien

I saw a recipe in a prevention book that included this frozen yogurt, cocoa powder, Protein powder, and a few other things I can't remember off hand. It looked sooooo good. Im going to try to find this next week.

I was sleeved on the 11th but my doctor asked to be on liquids just for one week. I will be 2 on puree. So far I have not felt sick at all, only the first two days I was having hicups lol I don't know why. But as far as tolarating food, I have been good.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
