Food during creamy stage...



Recommended Posts

I'm 5 days post op. What are some things you are eating during the creamy stage? I can't even eat a full table spoon without being full. I can only seem to eat the end of the spoon. Lol.

And why am I seeing a lot of people eating pintos and cheese from Taco Bell?! Goodness I'm hungry but I can't eat! I need ideas. Thanks.

Cream of chicken Soup, cottage cheese mashed up, little bit of mashed potatoes. I am 11 days post op and i still cant eat much either. Popsicles have been a life saver, not only refreshing but gets the nasty Protein shake taste out of your mouth

I don't know if the mashed pintos and cheese from Taco Bell is a good choice. It might be full of fat and made with processed cheese, which is not good for you, so I personally wouldn't go that route. As an alternative, you can have nonfat or low fat refried Beans. You can even put a little bit of light sour cream on them.

Cream of celery Soup was my favorite during my full liquid and pureed stage. I mixed in some of my powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein powder to get the Protein, which is important.

Mashed sweet potato, mashed canned carrots.

Some high protein foods during the mushy/pureed stage that I liked: scrambled eggs (I did Egg Beaters), cottage cheese, refried Beans, nonfat plain greek yogurt (mixed with a little stevia to sweeten), chicken salad made with mashed canned chicken and nonfat or lowfat mayo.

Oh, I wouldn't eat the Taco Bell. I just see a lot of people go for it. Thanks for all the ideas

I'm struggling. Four days out from surgery and NOTHING sounds even appealing. Have gotten 8 oz of Water in. Sips of Tomato Soup, Protein shakes and unsweetened applesauce. I've been told it has to be liquid...sipped thru a straw until 12/28. Pounds are falling off but I'm scared about too little Protein and Water. Would love any suggestions/recommendations.....

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
