I will be one week tomorrow and I get to start blended/puréed food.

What's on your list of foods tomorrow ?

I was on Protein shakes for 2 weeks post-op. Just started my soft food/pureed period for a week. I eat scrambled eggs (my pouch wouldn't tolerate hard boiled) greek yogurt, Peanut Butter, cottage cheese, popsickles. I was told not to eat Soups. Especially cream soups because they are slider foods and will not stay in your tummy. I made what I call noodleless lasagna with some ricotta cheese, an egg, some parmigian cheese and some spaghetti sauce. It is really yummy. This site has some great ideas. http://www.froedtert.com/SpecialtyAreas/BariatricSurgeryProgram/Recipes/

Good luck

Personally I am starting with a scrambled egg and I think blended chicken salad for lunch. I found a recipe that replaces the mayo with Greek yogurt. And blended chili for dinner.

The other things on my list I could choice from we're low sugar yogurts, sugar free pudding, blended meats, tuna salad, egg salad, cream of wheat, rice, or oatmeal.

How did you do with the eggs and chicken salad today?

I am 2 weeks out tomorrow and will FINALLY (I repeat, FINALLY) be able to have some food...even if it is pureed. I was told to stay away from cream-based Soups, so I will be pureeing a lot of minestrone chicken noodle type soups as well as lentil Soup. I will also be having scrambled eggs tomorrow and very mashed egg salad with FF mayo. I also plan on having butternut squash mashed real good and mashed potatoes. I don't plan on blenderizing EVERYTHING, because that's nasty, but I plan on doing what I can, and then just chewing chewing chewing the soft foods to an almost pureed consistency. I tried greek yogurt, and I loved it before surgery, but it seems to sweet for me. I just want SALT!!

I was told the same thing about soups...but I eat them- they help me meet my liquid requirements. Its all about calories...and food quantities as you move out further from surgery. log your food-and be mindful of your quantities. I like to do Soup first then 4 oz of meat or fish. (Which stays)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
