Is it okay to eat baby food during the soft food/pureed food stage post op for gastric sleeve?

Sorry. YUCK!

As you can tell, I did not do well on pureed foods. I lived on yogurt, cream of wheat, cottage cheese and Protein shakes.

I also cannot eat bean and that is a really good source of Protein for those on purée stage. Most people talk about that and ricotta bake. Maybe if I had done baby food I would feel differently.

For me it was an aversion to the texture. Yuck. LOL. I could not wait for that phase to be over.

Best of luck......

baby food is fine. I never did it, though, because for some reason the thought of eating baby food turned my stomach (not sure why since it's just pureed food...)

It depends on your specific program and the kind of baby food. It is also very important to read labels carefully. Some baby food has a lot of sugar/carbs.

Personally, I found real, adult food was much more palatable.

No, it isn't "just" pureed food. It's a scourge. It should be declared unconstitutional. Anyone who feeds that swill to babies should be punished by having to eat it.

Some of the fruits are okay, though. Nothing else.

I double checked with my NUT today and she said no.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
