the green light from the doctor today on my one week follow up! Boy am I excited too! lol

I love some ideas and recipes from you guys too! Im bored of Protein shakes and liquids as well...

Thanks you guys!

I am 3 weeks post op and started pureed foods today. had a scrambled egg this morning, could only eat half. Chew, chew, chew. Tried a little pureed chicken with low fat mayo and it was too bulky. got about 1 tablespoon down but it's taking it's time going down. almost like pate. Not gonna try this again for a bit.

Wendy's chilli?

I've been having hummus, eggs with cheese, tuna, soft shredded chicken chewed well, avocado/guacamole, yogurt, babybel cheese, cottage cheese, thicker soups, mashed potatoes. The little cans of tuna have lots of protein, so a good choice. Oh and I had a weight watchers fudge pop tonight that was awesome.

My favorite puree's were the Wendy's chili and refried beans with a little cheese on top.

I was all about the creamy soups during the pureed stage.

I boil my chicken then use a hand mixer to puree it with some marinara sauce. Then to eat it, I put a little parmesan cheese on top. It's pretty good

I pureed just about every variety of Progresso soup known to man!

Wendy's chilli?

Do not do this ,Chili that is pureed is disgusting. Learn from my mistake. The Beans texture has a lot to do with the taste.

Thank you all so much!! I think the pureed chicken with the mayo just ended up too dense. I'm looking forward to the refried beans. As far as the fudge pop, they told me to stick to under 5 grams of fat and 5 grams of sugar. I have been making a lot of sugar free instant pudding. Really good, lemon and white chocolate.

my favorite during this stage was grits and eggs....loved it!

Mmmmm grits!

I needed the fudge pop, I'm pre-period

my favorite during this stage was grits and eggs....loved it!

I get puréed food tomorrow and plan to have cheese grits and an egg first thing!
