When did you start purée?



Recommended Posts

I never had a problem with Peanut Butter (creamy, of course,) early on and sometimes had some on a couple of saltine crackers (which are basically liquid by the time they hit your stomach) but my program didn't distinguish between "full" liquids, purees or soft Protein foods. Where PB would fall within your doctor's spectrum of phases could be anybody's guess, so best to check with the doc if it isn't spelled out in your guidebook.

My program wasn't till week 3. Conservative ramp up, I know. I like being extra careful but to be honest. I kind of agree with the programs that move you a little faster through the stages. Their rationale is that mushies tend to be higher in calories, and they don't fill as quickly.

The whole blended phase is scaring me a bit because in honestly not very creative when it comes to food. I like a lot of different things but i can't wrap my head around this phase. I have i think 2 weeks of blended and then start on soft probably around thanksgiving or something. I just feel so lost right now

I started purées at 21 days. I was looking forward to it but now, 3 days in, I am done with them. :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
