I'm nearly at the end of my full liquids phase, I can't wait to move forward but I'm quite stumped on what to eat. Any suggestions?

I'm three days away from puree myself. I'm jumping right to blender chili. I can't wait!

When I was on the pureed stage I ate cottage cheese, yogurt, scrambled eggs, refried Beans with a little bit of light sour cream... or you could put a little cheese on them. And the thing that I ate the most of was canned chicken that I would mash with a fork (my nutritionist said I didn't have to put it in the blender).... and I would add a little lowfat mayo to the chicken and make a chicken salad out of it. You could also do mashed sweet potatoes, mashed carrots or mashed potatoes. I didn't eat much of the last 3 things, mainly because I was concentrating on getting that Protein in.

And I always pass this along because it's great tasting and you can have it on the pureed food stage. A recipe for ricotta bake can be found here: theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com She has a whole area of pureed food recipes... she is a former WLS patient with a great success story.

I can't stand the puréed stage simply because I can't stand the way how it looks! But all that mylighthouse ??Recommends is good. Did you purée the scambled eggs or just tried it as is?

To go along with the baby stomach theme, don't forget your baby utensils! Tiny bites, and wait a bit between. Measure your food since your stomach nerves may not be up to the task of alerting when full.

I'm half-way through the puree stage, and very ready to be over it! I'm doing yogurt, cottage cheese, string cheese (chew it really well), refried Beans with salsa and cheese, ricotta with marinara and cheese, pureed great northern beans and cauliflower with pesto, and tuna with mayo and pickle juice. this week I found a white chicken chili recipe and a turkey chili recipe I plan on trying. Also, I have Campbell's Broccoli Cheese or Tomato Soup in a pinch. I tried scrambled eggs plain and with cottage cheese, and also pureed deviled eggs, but those all felt really heavy in my sleeve. Tasted good, though.

I can't bring myself to puree meat- I've just been looking for things that are supposed to be that texture.

I added unflavored protein powder to everything:

  • strained soups from Panera Bread
  • low-fat ricotta with salt and pepper
  • roasted garlic hummus
  • sugar-free dark chocolate Jell-O pudding

@jensrdy593 I just did the scrambled eggs as is, small bites. My nutritionist said they didn't need to be pureed.

All you're suggestions sound really great and I'm looking forward to try that ricotta bake everyone raves about it.

I wonder if I can have a over easy egg instead of scrambled. How I miss real food.

Hey there, @ itszee ... i found a great recipe that i already can't wait to try, and i haven't even had the GS yet!!

*Chicken Broth & Potato Purée – Bring 2 cups Chicken Broth to a boil in a small pot. Remove from heat and whisk in Idahoan 100% Potato Flakes one tablespoon at a time until you have a nice smooth almost pourable texture. Add a little more broth if you have added too much potato flake. Season with salt and pepper so it tastes good. You can divide it in half and add a little Parmesan cheese and garlic powder for a second flavor. This is delicious, soothing and very easy for your new tummy to handle."
