I'm on puree and I weigh everything I eat. Question is do you weigh the food before or after you puree it? I added some of the juice from the meat in the crockpot so it weighed more after it was pureed but I don't believe the juice from the meat is technically counted if your allowed to have unlimited amounts of broth. Does anyone know the answer to this question?

It is more of a volume issue than weight. For example, if you weigh out your food and get 4 oz, you may have 4 oz by weight but not by volume. If you measure by volume, you may have 4 oz by volume, but it may weigh more.

Here is what I did. I would put my food into the blender with enough liquid to purée it. Then, I would measure it out by volume, because that is what your stomach holds. Your stomach does not care so much about weight.

Start out slow and learn what volume you can tolerate, and don't worry about the weight.

Just use low sodium broth. Broth is considered Water so I would not weigh it with the broth

Thank you so much...Been wondering this. I always have more after I puree and then have to add a little Protein powder to get to the 15 g.
