When did you start purée?



Recommended Posts

Not soft, mashed foods, but pureed. I'm wondering when you all started on them. I started on day 8 (yesterday) first just applesauce in addition to my liquids and thinned strained Soups.< /p>

My team has a conservative plan - liquids for four weeks, then purees, and no high carb foods like applesauce -- on purees, we are only allowed high Protein foods. All of our plans are so different!

Purees from day 15 for me.

I had 2 weeks on liquids post op, then 2 weeks runny purees, then 2 weeks soft/mushy, then gradual progression onto solids.

I was adding stock and yoghurt or sauce to my savoury purees. They had to roll off the spoon easily.

To Breakfast purees I was adding runny yoghurt and soft fruit like bit of banana or papaya. I was stewing pears at that stage. Plus I was adding Protein powder to all purees, had an unflavoured high Protein Powder.

Still use it in the mornings with my regular yoghurt and grated 1/4 apple, these days.

After 4 weeks of Clear Liquids, weeks 2-4 including Protein Shakes, puree started at week 5, soft foods at week 7, finally start adding regular foods at week 9.

Purees and other soft type Proteins (eggs, yogurt, etc.) in the hospital and beyond for the first month. I ignored the pureed lettuce (ewwww..) they served there.

I hate to ask this. But I'm starting my puree stage this week. Is Peanut Butter a no no? I think i saw someone talking about it a while ago, i don't remember where i saw people chatting about it. Im just asking because it's soft and 8g of Protein for 2tbsp. But the texture is sticky. Im just trying to get the hang of this. Im still learning to make good choices. Haven't eaten any just wondering for the future if anyone has experience. If it's a good option or not

I never tried it during puree stage, or even now.

I was told by my dietician that the purees have to be runny enough to roll off the spoon.

Perhaps if you mixed it with runny yoghurt and blasted it in the NutriBullet, it could possibly work.

However, a good Protein powder added to Chobani yoghurt will give you about 35g for 1/2 cup serve.

I did use Peanut Butter but by adding to shakes. I have since switched to PB2 which is in a powder form but 80% less calories. It still flavors the shakes but better for calorie intake.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
