Not sure I understand the pureed diet.



Recommended Posts

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. Get yourself a mini chopper and puree your food in it. I liked scrambled egg, cottage cheese, canned meats chicken/turkey/ham or even corned beef. Chili would be good too.

I don't really know, but to tell you the truth, I didn't bring myself to puree anything. I ate soft stuff and I chewed it twenty or more times. I had all those things except the shaved ham. I also had Campbell's chicken Noodle Soup. My doctor said I could have it, but expected me to blenderize it and I was not about to. Just chewed it to mush before I swallowed it. I made my mouth the blender. It was fine.

I was never on a puréed diet, just soft foods. It's amazing how different doctors are.

My stage 3 was "puréed or mushy". So I stuck with mushy. Cottage cheese was mushy, so I didn't have to do anything else to it. I did food process chicken, and other meats. It made it more like the texture in a chicken salad or pulled pork. I then took small bites and chewed a lot. I am now 6 weeks out and eating reg foods.

I bought the bullet blender. Thing is awesome. I am in the puréed stage as well. I cook normal for the family then take some and put it through the bullet blender. Taco meat, Beans and salsa, AWESOME. slow cooker meat, carrots and a small potatoe. Both me and the baby ate that with smiles. Made home made low fat pot pie for the family so I took the veggies, meat and low fat gravy and blended. Was really good over a table spoon if mashed potatoes. I have also been roasting cauliflower and blending that with minced garlic, butter and a little broth. Love it!! My kids think that is what mashed potatoes are.

Do what the dr. Says and follow the diet. Not worth any chances. Chewing is not puréed. If it were they would tell you to do that. You just had most of your stomach removed. Don't be lazy with the healing diet.

I ate a lot of canned tuna or chicken with low fat mayo, put through the blender. Also cottage cheese blended with a little vanilla extract, cinnamon and Equal.

Not sure why you'd need to blend cottage cheese (small curd). Cottage cheese was on my phase II diet and all I had to do was mash it a bit with my fork. While I still do that, I do it less and less.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
