I had surgery 1/21/13

Is like tuna a purée or soft food ?

Every surgeon does this differently and people do choose not to faithfully follow what they have been told. I've seen people here do solids two weeks out and wonder why it doesn't feel good.

I was at 80% puree and 20% very soft like yogurts, humus, cottage cheese etc. The goal was let the stomach heal and not put pressure on the seam.

The chart my dr gave me said clear liquid for 1.5 days, then full liquid for ten days. After that soft-solids for 21 days then full solids.

I guess I'm rt on point I have a chart but it doesnt give me many ideas as to what more variety of food I can eat

i ate refried beans but i thinned it down with beef broth.. it tasted so good I also ate tomato soup, pea soup, yogurt, things like that. I know the savory tasted so good after drinking so many sweet shakes for so long..

Yes the sweet stuff to much cause I never had a sweet tooth to begin with

Pureed is just that; pureed foods-cottage cheese, tuna, canned meats(chicken, tuna), egg. If you are on pureed you should also be able to have yogurt, strained cream soups, broths, thinned protein shakes.

Do blend the tuna or just prepare and it ?

Mix with some low fat mayo and chew well. It will fill you fast so go slow.
