Mushy ideas? My NUT is all about no carbs or fat so I'm wondering how do i make this food mushy?

Put it in a food processor with some broth or sauce. Does your dietician really mean NO carbs or fat? Because that's not healthy IMO, or really even possible unless the only thing you are ever going to eat is extremely lean meat. Even that will have some fat in it.

She's actually OK with Protein sources having some natural fat but she's not allowing any mayo or healthy oils like at all.... seems a bit extreme

I agree. That is extreme. Some carbs are healthy. mayo I can understand but I use cheese and cheese sauce to moisten I lived on runny mashed potatoes for a while. I went 6 weeks without ANY food and very little Fluid. I spent 2 weeks in the hospital and almost had a central line for IV fluids. My NUT said do what works (within reason). Extremes aren't healthy.

I am not saying you to do this you must follow your gut instinct or your nut but in the very beginning a lot of "sleevers" tolerate mashed potatoes or the noodles and juice from Cambell's chicken noodle Soup original- don't eat the chicken pieces just yet and try to fill up on Protein Shakes. They do have Protein puddings and jello-s but they don't taste too good.

Refried Beans with some light sour cream is a decent Protein source. I made tuna and chicken salad in the blender so it is smooth(like pate), you can use light mayo. I also put chicken or turkey in the blender with some gravy.

      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.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
