Puréed stage in less than 7 days

Has anyone felt good enough to start incorporating puréed foods in early than the 7 day mark... Like day 5 or 6? Last night I went to a steak house for a friends birthday and drank Water. I was sleeved on 3/7. I am also drinking pretty normal amounts with not much discomfort.

- grateful & desperate for purée

    I started purée a day early. It was Shelly's ricotta bake. It was the best thing I ever ate.

    I was sleeved on the 2nd and I'm not supposed to start purées until Wednesday (2 week mark). I've already had a couple of things that were mushy and I feel good. I went grocery shopping today to get ready for my mushy foods, I'll probably start Tuesday.

    Head hunger is real!

    I had mine done on 3/7 too I started puréed today. I started with choc pudding(made from the box) and yo plait yogurt. I are 1/2 and was full. Any other ideas for puréed foods that you don't have to blend?

    I made regular mashed potatoes, sweet mashed potatoes, mashed butternut squash, split pea soup (sooooo much protein), ricotta bake, broccoli soup, bananas with cinnamon and almond milk and that's it to get started

    I talked to my doc about starting early because I was feeling great and ready for purée, but my doc said it isn't about how great you feel it's about letting your stomach heal. I would suggest talking to your doc before moving to the next stage early. I was on liquids for 4 weeks and it's hard but it makes the purée stage that much better!!! Good luck :)
