I just made a protein smoothie with EAS Myoplex, chocolate PB2, Greek yogurt, and two strawberries. I puréed the berries first, then blended the rest of the ingredients. Is it okay for the full liquids stage? I can still feel a few of the strawberry seeds. My sleeve manual doesn't say anything about it.

Seeds can be a problem is they get caught in the still healing suture line

Kinda what I figured. Dang. That was in the freezer and starting to sound good while my family has my dad's best BBQ. Liquids suck. Maybe I can blend chicken...lol. This, too, shall pass, and I will be happy I did it. Thanks, Laura.

Girl I blended chicken in the puréed stage! Said I never would! But I did and I liked it..

Just make the same thing over without the berries. You might want to buy a berry flavored sugar free Torani syrup ..

Strain the berries.. Or use the juice from frozen fruit .. yummy, but lots of sugar. I use sf torani's (like Laura mentioned) for all my sweet flavoring

I just made a protein smoothie if you will. It was pure protein shake vanilla with a little sugar free orange jello powder. Added a little ice and tada I just had an orange dreamcicle.

@Laura: I have no shame. I tried to purée the chicken today with broth. Failed to make it look like Soup, but I tried.

@Ms.AntiBand: thanks, I may try that, but you're right. I don't want the added sugar.

@Sneed: that sounds awesome! I never would have thought of it, but I will be buying sugar-free Jello powder tomorrow!

I know this is a little left field...but what about mushed up bean and bacon soup? Im on week 2 now...been doing mushy soups...what does everyone think about this?

And also Vitamin d milk with the sugar free pudding packets? I figured that skim has more sugar-not enough stuff thats good for you.

What about using SF seedless strawberry jam?

My vitamix pulverizes everything. You can't feel seeds from strawberries. Is this way ok to have strawberries??? I get scared but my vitamix pulverizes most things. I can't wait to ask my doc next week, but if any if you know, please tell me. Thanks.
