Yes, you can puree pinto Beans.

You can have canned chicken or tuna on the puree stage. I would mix my chicken with a little lowfat mayo and seasonings and have it like a little chicken salad.

Refried Beans, hummus, yogurt, cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, ricotta bake.

My nutritionist said that all I needed to do for the canned chicken was mash it up real well with a fork, so that's what I did. It worked fine with me. I know that some people prefer to puree it in their blender or food processor... it's up to you.

I don't know about the pureed strawberries, it might be too early to add them. I know that your stomach during the pureed stage isn't quite ready for some fresh fruits. You might want to check with your nutritionist on that. My nutritionist said I could have mashed banana for fruit, but that was about it on the pureed stage.

I got foil packs of Salmon Creations (lemon &dill) then used a hand mixer to add a few tablespoons of Fage' plain greek yogurt. Really easy to get my Protein in that way.

Sure, here is the recipe.... I got it from this website: theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com

She has some great recipes on her website, she is a former WLS patient and she has a great success story!

Her recipes are on her website along with pictures and she even has an area of recipes for the pureed food stage.

Shelly's Ricotta Bake

8 oz of Ricotta cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

1 large Egg, beaten

1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

salt & pepper to taste

1/2 cup Marinara Sauce

1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese

Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave.

I was allowed soft white fish on my puréed phase, so I did that. I also made chicken salad, but I made it homemade in a blender rather than using the canned stuff. I also ate a lot of eggs.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
