Two weeks post op! Pureed ideas? April sleevers



Recommended Posts

I finally turned a corner after the first week of throwing up every 5 seconds. I am almost able to get in my Water and protein! Yeah me! Today I started pureed foods. I had cottage cheese for lunch and a scrambled egg with cheese for dinner. My doc wants me to get 600 calories a day and wants me to eat 3 meals with no Snacks. I'm sort of confused because without snacks I can't get 600 calories? So what was everyone's favorite pureed food at this point? And snack? Oh and Protein? Everything is so sweet it kind of grosses me out...which is weird since I used to love sweets. How are all you other April sleevers doing? Btw...I've lost 20 pounds in 2 weeks! Yeah me!

I've not been able to enjoy anything until retried Beans. Had some today and it was wonderful. Scrambled eggs, which I loved before surgery, are very "meh" after surgery. After surgery I hate the fake sugar taste, so I haven't been able to enjoy light yogurts or SF Popsicles. Strangely, SF Jello is pretty decent.

So, short answer is that I'm going to be eating a lot of retried Beans in the near future.

I tried eggs last night and they were good but then I felt kind of sick after. I just tried refried Beans and my body seems to hate them. I am also grossed out by the fake sugar in all the sugar free stuff I am allowed to have. I guess I'll eat cottage cheese for a while.

I made bean Soup and added extra lean ground turkey blended it all together to make it creamy and so far I love it is delicious....also fat free Greek yogurt has been working great for me......I added the turkey for extra Protein since I'm only eating 4 oz of it once or twice per day that way I can get to my protein intake of 60 to 70 grams per day.

food just doesn't taste the same to me. I tried an egg this morning and it tasted gross. I've had ff refried Beans with a little cheese. Tonight a friend made a cheeseburger casserole for my family. It's just lean ground beef, cheese, light mayo, and sliced Tomato. I used my immersion blender and puréed some for me to try. Yes it looked like cat food but tasted amazing! I've been having trouble getting my Water in. I feel like I'm drinking all the time but I'm still thirsty. I picked up some sugar free lime Jello. I'm going to make some and mix in my unflavored Unjury powder....hopefully it will taste good.

Last night I boiled sweet potato, carrots, and baked chicken. I used chicken thighs, because they are easier to purée. I puréed it all together using a mixer with some low sodium chicken broth. It tasted great. It looked like baby food but, it is what it is. I made more then enough for the next few days.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
