I am 4 days post-op and I ate half a jar of organic choice apple sauce. I did add some Water in it. Does it count as liquid or was it cheating? So far it has sat down well.

If apple sauce is allowed on your plan, it isn't "cheating." Apple sauce was not allowed on my plan on full liquids (or even on purees, because it is so high sugar, high carb, and low protein) so if I had done it, it would have been breaking the rules of my plan.

I hate the word "cheating" for going off-plan btw. Cheating is doing something wrong in order to gain an advantage and better your position. Going off plan does not gain any advantage or put you in a better position, it's an act of self-sabotage.

I have had puréed baby food as well and my nutritionist only indicated that it needed to be diluted a bit with Water or juice.

I would avoid baby food all together but Apple sauce in particular usually has alot of sugar. What Stage are you on?

I agree. Is it in your plan? Is it allowed during this particular phase? (I also hate the term "cheating". You made a choice. Was it a wise choice?)

I was allowed no sugar added applesauce (I got the single serve size) but don't remember if it was allowed during full liquids or soft foods.

I hope your NUT/program gave you a food plan. Follow it.

Ok I guess it wasnt a wise choice. My mom had a gastric sleeve a year ago sith the same surgeon and she said she ate apple sauce with Water. And counted as liquid. So far I havent had any problems but Thanks for replying and telling me the difference between "cheating" and "wise choice"
