This was my dinner last night. Stuffed steak, zucchini fries and roasted Tomato. <br><br>

How much of that were you able to eat?

This made two meals for me. I ordered the insides of an italian sandwich at the airport. Needless to say, no fries for me.

yes as long as you puree it. But I have some other yummy things you can have if you are on full liquids? Check out http://sleevers.wordpress.com/?s=%22full+liquids%22&submit=Search

and also look at the recipes for Soups, Protein puddings, etc.

Lots of yummy food to have at every stage!

You are welcome! I have recipes for soft foods on my blog that you might enjoy? Definitely try the chocolate mousse and the high Protein pudding, but there are a few others that might be fun to shoot for, including the amazing cheese souffle that my husband made yesterday.

Lol My husband killed his Elk and Deer this year so I now am a proud owner of 300 pounds or venison. :) We freaking eat it almost daily. I do however half to break it up with some chicken a few times a week. It's a learning curve cooking this lean meat I tell ya!! :)

Oh and I'm in Washington state near the border of Canada. :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
