I was just wondering what could happening switching to purée a day or so early? I feel like I am going to puke tasting my shakes now. My body has obviously have enough of that flavor.

There are more options than shakes on full liquids. What about Soup? V8?

talk to your NUT. my swelling went down quickly and I was ready - spoke to my team and the asked me some questions about symptoms and cleared me to start a few days early.

True but they want 70g of protein daily. That definitely limits soups.

you can add Protein powder to soup as long as it is not above 140 degrees. 120 is plenty hot I think/

exactly.

What happens if it too hot?

it clumps.

Gotcha

Everyone's program is different but I was on puréed the day I went home from the hospital. I only was on liquids for one day and even then they gave me meds crushed in applesauce while in the hospital. Check with your dr or nut.

I just boiled carrots, celery, onion, zucchini and ginger until mushy. Then I liquified them. I let that cook down to a nice bisque texture. I let it cool some and added unflavored pro turn powder. It tastes amazing and it's got protein. Thanks for all the suggestions!

You can take what you just cooked (try a crock pot next time) and add nutritional yeast to it. It adds a "cheesy/bready (is "bready" a real word ? ) when mixed in. 2 TLBSP add 7-8 gr of protein for only 40-45 cal.

"Try it--you'll like it!"

It sounds like you got this! BUT: wouldn't hurt to run it by your nutritionist, would it????

Might I recommend "Bone Broth" and "Bone Stock" chicken and turkey flavors at whole foods pack 9-14g of protein per 8oz. I started purées on a very thinned out yellow squash and/or zucchini blended with twice as much of this broth. I would start there and if you tolerate well you can always add a scoop of unflavored protein powder.

Of course sautéed the squash within an inch of its life first;-)

I would be afraid to try it! My nutritionist stressed the importance of following the phases to the letter so that the stomach can properly heal. But it really depends on how the first useful spoonfuls sit in your stomach. Good luck.
