I'm very excited to be counting down to 2/10 when I have my lap band removed and sleeve done in one surgery. What are some favorite foods post op? liquid stage, and mushy?

I like the Premier Protein shake from costco. 30 grams of Protein and a yummy not too sweet chocolate flavor!

Liquid stage - in addition to my favorite Protein Shakes (Syntrax nectar, Syntrax Matrix, Unjury chocolate splendor and chicken broth, Chike iced coffee), I drank a lot of V8 (so nice to have something not sweet), light cranberry juice, and G2. For purees, I did a lot of refried Beans with melted cheese, poached eggs (eggs are iffy for a lot of people though), and different kinds of pureed meats. I would puree the meat with a sauce I thought it would taste good with. For example, I bought Thai spiced tuna and pureed it with Sriracha sauce. I took shrimp and pureed it with remoulade. I took chicken and pureed it with low carb BBQ Sauce, then heated it up and melted some cheese on top.

The Eggface ricotta bake is awesome too.

Best wishes to you!

Hello, I just had my band-to-sleeve surgery 1/7 my favorite has to be the applesauce that comes in a squeezable tube...flavors apple/strawberry and apple/peach...the costco chocolate Protein shakes are BEST and have 30 gms of protein!! I also love cottage cheese with crushed pineapple, I use some of the juice on it too.

I also bought Jello Band pudding but stopped the pudding it was too rich and upset my tummy.

Tomato Soup too! Yum!

liquids...chicken noodle Soup with no noodles.

BEST WISHES TO YOU LAPNICKY
