Hello All-

I am finally at the puréed food stage (sleeved 09/07) and I am looking for suggestions of what everyone ate.... that doesn't necessarily included putting meat in a blender. It kind of freaks me out. LOL.

Thank you for your suggestions!

• Ricotta Bake (google it - Bariatric ricotta bake)
• No sugar added applesauce
• Cottage cheese
• Scrambled eggs
• Greek Yogurt
• Real Fruit and vegetable smoothies
• Tuna (From a can -- it's typically chopped small enough for puree stage)
• pureed Veggies (steam them first...then they're easy to puree)
• Refried Beans
• oatmeal
• Sweet Potato (mashed)
• Mashed Cauliflower

There's a lot more but that's off the top of my head remembering what I ate at that stage. You can look on this forum and find many more recipes by stage that will be helpful also.

Just make sure you meet your liquid and Protein goals every day!!

Best of luck!

Thank you!! That's a very helpful start. I appreciate ot!

I would also recommend 1% cottage cheese and plain Greek yogurt.

I add a teaspoon of Polaner's no sugar added jelly.

It comes in a few flavors, adds sweetness to cottage cheese or plain Greek yogurt with very little calories and carbs.

I also have tuna salad made with low fat mayonnaise and egg salad as well.

Polly-O cheese sticks are great too and no carbs. Just chew them well.

Hope this helps.

How much of the ricotta bake is one serving? It looks great but I bet it's high in fat.

I wouldn't worry too much about fat content at this point in your recovery. You won't be able to eat more than a few bites, which is hardly enough to make an impact. Also, if you use part skim, low fat ricotta and mozzarella cheeses, it's really not as bad as you would think.

Thanks for the advice
