4 weeks out - pureed and soft foods - recipes or stick with basics?



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks out and am unsure if I should try recipes with allowed foods or just stick with eating each thing on its own? I am nervous about adding spices or other items not listed to create some of those great recipes I've found. What are your thoughts? Any "recipe" suggestions with the foods listed? By the way, my stomach has been pretty grumpy with me for the last several days so unsure if that would make a difference... Thanks! :)

Here is a list of things I am allowed to eat:

soft cooked eggs (cooked with no fat)

shredded/sliced low fat cheese

cottage cheese or ricotta cheese

soft tofu

cream of wheat, cream of rice, oatmeal

fat free refried Beans

pureed broth based Soups

low fat, low sugar fruited yogurt

soft bananas

canned tuna

soft cooked veggies

hummus

sugar free pudding

***************************************

next week I can add:

soft fruits - peeled or canned in juice

Tomato juice

boiled potatoes

unsalted crackers

Pasta cut into small pieces

unsweetened cold cereals

spaghetti sauce

ground veal, chicken, turkey, fish

soft cooked beans/lentils

crustless quiche

Hi I'm 3 weeks out and eating pretty much all of your foods listed. I have tried spices and they have worked out ok.. today I cook small amount of fish and topped it with cottage cheese and garlic salt toasted it on the grill. My tummy is also very sensitive these last few weeks.. it's all a leading curve. Just try new things.. good luck????

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
