Just had my first pureed food tonight. I took some refried beans, mixed in some greek yogurt and Chohula Sauce. Stirred it all together and scooped into muffin pans (purely for portion control). Topped with cheese and heated in the oven.

Yum! I really have missed savory flavors other than cream of chicken soup : ) Cant wait to decide what to puree tomorrow!

I found that I could pretty much puree anything made by Progresso and was always very content.

It is amazing what excites us in the beginning.

I am having a problem snacking late at night does anyone have any suggestion ons that I can eliminate that I was sleeved on February the 6th and I'm down 67 pounds

@nervousnellie - congratulations on getting to pureed stage! I love your attitude - I hope I can match it when it's my turn!

@montugue - it might be wise to start your own new thread for this, just to avoid hijacking nellie's thread. But as a thought, have you considered why you are snacking? Is your last meal too early compared to your bedtime? Is it a habit, like when you watch tv? Is it head hunger, as in I really want some carbs? Or are you actually hungry?

If it's actually hunger, maybe either shift your dinner to a little later, or rework your meal schedule to include a small evening snack. Put your snacking urge to good use. Find some good protein snacks, like a little cheese or even better, something more dense like chicken. That should fill you up quickly, and give you longer-lasting satisfaction than carbs. Some people find that a small yogurt or a protein shake is enough to keep them on track without leaving them hungry.

If it's habit, find something to do that keeps your hands busy and makes it too tough to eat. I use a knitting loom while I watch TV quite often, which means I'm not likely to eat chips or anything that will get grease/crumbs on my project without thinking about it, taking the time to put the project away, eating, washing hands and getting back to my project. I'd have to honestly REALLY want the chips to do that. It doesn't keep me from putting the project on my lap for a moment and grabbing a sip of iced tea or water, though!

Good luck to both of you!
