Hey guys I'm a week out and now I can have puréed foods...what was your fave purée? So far I tried:

1. Poached egg with avocado puréed (not mashed) it was aweful

2. tuna with mayo (puréed) that was gross too lol

3. Cauliflower and chicken with cheese purée then baked in the oven with some cheese on top that was a winner!!!

4. Scrambled egg... Just scrambled was a bit undoable so I whizzed it a bit...kinda ok loll

And now I don't know I'll try some pumpkin Nd sweet potato and then I'm at a loss any ideas?

I'm drinking Soups, Yogurt, cottage cheese, baby food. I had some baby food meat and it was alright. Kind of tasteless. My favorite now is cottage cheese. I've eaten puddings too.ive tried to purée the foods my family is eating with no success. Baby foods are interesting.

i had hale and hearty lentil chili pureed A LOT. I didn't like wendy's chili pureed, and it didn't agree with me. Other than that I think I consumed Chobani 100- I liked how it had Fiber in it :)

Good luck, remember this phase will be over soon. (honestly, i was not a happy camper during pureed).

Can you explain more specifically how you made that cauliflower chicken cheese dish. I really need something different. It sounds good.

I got some Campbell's Soup on the go chicken tortilla flavored 10 oz, added one scoop of Unjury chicken Protein Powder, 1/4 cup of refried Beans, and some Mexican shredded cheese. I put it all in the blender and then heated it up. Omg it is the best meal I've had since I've had surgery. I'm in love. I ate 1/4 of it and I'm frickin full! Lol. I'm going to try and get it all down tonight. And if I can't I'm saving it for tomorrow!

It's more of a liquid.....not really a purée. It was no thicker than a shake! Lol

Ok so the cauliflower thing I boiled som cauliflower and chicken in the one pot until they were really soft cut the chicken a bit it helps to blend it. Then drain the Water. Put back into the pot add salt and pepper and other seasoning whatever u enjoy then add an egg or two depends on how much u make and add some cheese to it then I used my hand blender and whizzed it all up until it was smooth not silky smooth but smooth ish then i put it in like a square oven dish and then in the oven she goes until it starts to go brown ontop about 15-20mins and then a bit more cheese ontop and cook till the cheese melts and is a bit brown then take it out of the oven and let it cool and then slice and enjoy ????

Today I also used my pressure cooker and made a lamb shank and then I added sweet potato and pumpkin into the pot cooked it for a bout 20mins (but first I had cooked the meat for 10 mins) and then I took the lamb off the bone sucked the bone lol it was amazing!!!! And then again my hand blender just a little whizz not a paste so still need to chew I even put some pieces of lamb in my mouth and chew chew chew and omg it was sooo gooooddddddd oh and the sweet potato and pumpkin got a seperate whizz with the hand blender and it's so good cause they absorbed all the juices the meat is ok to get down but chew for a long time and the sweet potAto goes down EASY!!!!

Also ricotta and avocado smushed together pretty special too...

Also made some pudding and tried some that's dangerous cause it goes down way too easy mmmm I'm a happy camper today hope that helps lolll sorry for the long message ????

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
