My favorites are refried Beans with salsa and cheese, chicken salad, ricotta with marina, and cauliflower mock baked potato. I don't remember what my first soft/puree was...

Chewing just sounds so wonderful. I can hardly wait, 3 more days.

Ricatta Bake! Like lasagna without the noodles. It made me feel like I was eating "real" food for the first time.

I'm on my phone, so I can't paste the link, but Google The World According to Eggface Ricatta Bake. She has some other ideas for the pureed stage that are pretty good, also.

Low sodium, fat free refried Beans with cheese and sour cream. Season the Beans with cumin, garlic and chili powder.

Can we have Greek yogurt with fruit in it? What do you put in your tuna and chicken salad?

You should ask your nutritionist, @@nrg33, but tuna and chicken salad was not in my pureed stage. That came later in the "soft foods" stage.

I did canned chicken breast with mayo, or even better Ranch dressing, and pureed a little until smooth. You can add a little broth if it seems too thick.

I have three favorites since starting pureed: grilled chicken and yellow pepper, lime, avacado, a little salsa and dab of Water (so it would actually puree!). pureed chicken, hummus & lots of lemon juice... last but not least low fat refried Beans mix in low fat sour cream and salsa (liquid part).. moist enough to get in, not too think

I didn't get to meat until soft foods and I'm still not sure if I'm allowed to have Beans yet. My first pureed food wasn't even pureed it was cottage cheese and it tasted so good! I also made a puree of roasted acorn squash with a little fat free half and half and the truvia brown sugar blend. That was also quite good.

Truly puréed was unsweetened applesauce. However I quickly transitioned myself to sugar free pudding and Wendy's chili!

      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.

      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!!
