So I've been so excited to move on puréed foods but having trouble keeping anything down. First off I know that the stuff I've been eating wasn't 100% all that healthy, but I was trying to introduce familiar foods into my diet. There were two instances where I couldn't keep what I ate down. Is there anyone out there who had this problem. I thought the stuff I was eating was too greasy. I know I don't have a leak because there is no fever. I've tried eggs with cheese and ham. Didn't go well and Mac and cheese w/ sausage. Is there anyone who struggled with purée? What can I try without having to keep eating full liquids because I'm tired of soup.

Try it without the cheese, maybe you're lactose intolerant since the surgery.

Have you tried baked chicken, turkey, or fish?

Have you tried cottage cheese? Peanut Butter maybe. Yogurt? Something not so heavy or greasy I'm sure would set better for you. Best wishes!!

Make sure the pureed food is not to dry. Add extra liquid.

I'm on week two of puree and doing good. I have mostly had chicken breast (baked or boiled) and cottage cheese. I incorporated some baked beans and refried bean in after a week. This week have had tilapia also. All has done good. I try to eat only things that are good sources of protien. I have not tried anything spicy or greasy basically cause I couldn't tolerate them prior to surgery, so don't want to take chances now. As well, I still have a protien shake or two during the day. Am able to get in 60+ on protein easily.

Swanson's chicken broth is a lifesaver!

I will be starting my puree on Thurs. I will let you know how it goes. I also enjoyed reading the suggestions......won't pack away the chicken broth.

I have baby food as a back up but I've been really trying to eat more "adult" foods than just baby foods. Thanks for the suggestions.
