Hi my surgery is in 2 days

Heyyy

I'm in the same exact boat. I started checking the Internet for ideas and recipes there are some good ones out there.

Om I'm here to...come on wls pro's help use newbie's out

Go on to the highland hospital Rochester ny web site the have food ideas as well as a meal plan you can print out for every stage. ! I used to love chicken with racatta warmed up with a touch of garlic salt all purée if you can get past the texture it kinda taste like garlic pizza.

Nine months out down 109 pounds feeling great! Keep up the hard work !

Sorry, purées just suck. There are people on here that purée normal meals and eat em (meatloaf, fajitas, etc) so that's one option (bleh!!!). I personally ate a lot of beans/bean Soups. Retried Beans thinned with a little chicken broth, add puréed salsa, shredded cheese, sour cream. Bean Soup cooked til it's mush and the vegetables are completely falling apart. Egg salad (boiled egg, dab of mayo, mustard, salt, pepper. At first I puréed this, then further out just used my fine grater to grate the eggs. Broccoli cheese soup puréed with my ninja, roasted squash soup also puréed. I was not super creative but the thought of pureeing meat horrified me!!! So I avoided meat for the most part. Oatmeal/cream of wheat but use caution, this is where I started dumping. sugar free pudding made with sKim or 1% milk, add a scoop of Syntrax nectar (pick your flavor) and stir with the pudding powder before adding milk. Covers the Protein flavor fairly well. 1/2 cup has 100 calories and 10 grams of protein. And of course, smooth Greek yogurt. I use dannon light and fit greek 2x the protein, 80 calories, 12 grams of protein.

Play around with it! You'll find something you can tolerate. My emergency lunch meal was egg drop soup, just strain out the chunks. Lived off this for lunch during the week!

Google the world according to eggface. She has many ideas. Her ricotta cheese bake (ricotta, mozzarella, spaghetti sauce) was also one of my purée staples!

Good luck!!!!

I found this website http://www.gastricbypasscoaching.com/sample-menus/ they have some good ideas. I start mine on Thurs, and I really can't wait. Hope this helps

The world according to egg face was a big help to me, she has so many ideas:)

While I do appreciate the world according to egg face blog, I do take issue with the fact that there are so many packaged foods. Having bariatric surgery means that you are getting a brand-new start. Moving from liquids, to puréed, to semisolid, to solid is a journey that we should enjoy. Eating canned beef hash is not part of my journey, and will not be part of my journey. This is a big opportunity for us to go organic, eat clean, it local. The excuse that everything is too expensive will no longer apply because our portions will be tiny.

If there is ever a time in your life where eating organic will be affordable, it is directly after you get gastric bypass surgery.
