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.....

Thanks! I will try the pudding. Are you using an unflavored Protein? If so, what kind? Need to go shopping tomorrow, I'm not very prepared....
