Suggestions for the "Creamy" stage



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow I am happy to announce that I move to the creamy stage...any suggestions would be welcomed!

Looking forward to scrambled eggs with shredded cheese, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt but need other suggestions.

Really tired of the full-liquid stage:(

Post-op day 16 today. I've lost a total of 20lbs since I've started this journey.

Thanks to all!!

By "creamy" do you mean purée?

During purée I would do things like chicken and gravy, turkey meatloaf blended with watery mashed potatoes and gravy. Puréed chili,

Puréed tuna salad,

I'm also in the purée stage but am not cleared for meat, chicken, etc for a few more weeks.

I'm loving the mini lite baby bell cheese, oatmeal with milk and refried Beans. Today for lunch I had a 1/4- 1/2 cup of refried black Beans with a tbsp of sour cream. SO GOOD!!! I heated up a low-carb tortilla but liked the beans and sour cream so much I didn't eat it.

Weird thing... I used to love bananas and had one at Breakfast every day. I tried to eat one today and it was awful! I can only hope my taste buds start to hate pizza and chocolate too! Lol.

Good luck on your diet. I think there are some recipe threads on the post-op site if you enjoy cooking!

Thank you all. I'm not cleared for meat until the day after Christmas however my NUT said a day before wouldn't hurt as long as it was super moist..nothing dry.

Mashed potatoes sounds good with some gravy (not sure what the Protein level would be).

Thank you for the link; MUCH appreciated!

Yeah, my first go with an egg didn't go over to well either. My Dr's instructions were to only eat 1/4th and I'm glad I did because I thought for sure it was going to come right back up.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
