If you look under food and nutrition, and then look under recipe sharing there are sections for each phase, which is where I got some ideas.

I'm almost done with this phase, and I've been eating a lot of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and laughing cow cheese. I can tolerate scrambled eggs, so that has been good. My favorite dinner is to mix refried Beans with tortilla Soup broth and a little bit of cheese.

Other people purée chicken or other lean meats. Or some people purée creamy Soups, but those don't settle well for me.

Other options are cream of wheat or grits or mashed potatoes, but you'll want to watch the carbs.

Ricotta cheese, add a little mozerella, cover with a dab of marinara and bake. Use a ramikin if you have one.

Canned chicken or tender cooked chicken. Purrre and season with taco seasoning. Purée a can on green chilie tomatoes and layer sauce over chicken. Top with sour cream or the queso flavored laughing cow.

Cottage cheese and Greek yogurt will help get your Protein numbers up. Staple in that phase for sure.

Hummus. Not high in Protein but helped satisfy the need to eat ANYTHING that didn't taste like fake sugar.

I loved broc and cheese Soup from the deli which I'd purée and strain. No more than 1/4, 1/3 cup but it was heavenly.

It all passes soon enough. Good luck to you all!

Hi,

I, myself got really Organised, and went to buy some of the Plastic cups containers.

Like the Take out have, but smaller. I think to fill like 3-5 oz. cup with lid.

Then I went to butcher, made a 3-4 kg Beef roast. Nice & tender with grave, carrots, Garlic, onion, little herbs etc. Simmered on top of Stove.

Cool down, cut it up & purred the whole thing. Filled it up, in to freezer.

Once your out of the Hospital, I don't think you feel like shopping around & cook etc.

I had a real good , relaxing 2 week stay at Home. De-frost my Protein loaded mini meals. Tasted solo good.

I know what was in it, tasted very good, filling and all.

So, if you like you can something like that do is well. Prepare yourself.

It keeps for weeks/mth in freezer anyway.

Ok, good uck and let me know how you did it.

Later Franky

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
