When I go into puréed foods am I allowed to have egg salad and puréed tuna salad. I can have scrambled eggs and mashed potatoes just wondering. I needed different options so I don't get bored.

My surgeon made it seem like as long as it was relatively smooth or chewed into oblivion it should be ok. ??

You won't know until you try it. Just eat one or two SMALL bites and wait a few minutes. Then see how it feels. If you get pain, stop. And don't over eat. You need to learn how you feel before you get full. I am 3 weeks out, trying new foods and this has been working well for me. I'm still not hungry so stopping is easy. I then go back to something I know works well.

Two weeks post op, I have been eating tuna salad, chicken salad, egg salad, hummus, butternut squash soup, and mashed potatoes plus of course the ubiquitous protein shake. I am mindful on the "salads" as far as the fat content (e.g., mayo), but so far, these are the things that have worked for me in puree stage.

Puréed for me was anything you could put through a fine strainer.

Eggs etc. was considered soft.

What do you eat with the hummus?

Yeah what do we eat with hummus ?

I spread hummus on a parmesan crisp and chew until soft. Crunchy, salty good. 4 weeks out.

I have a X-ray question. I'm in stage 4 (sleeved on 8/15) had small pieces of chicken tonight and about 6 small green beans.

on my list from the nutritionist it says I can have fat free ricotta. Being Italian, can I add fat free egg beaters and a little fat free mozzarella and Parmesan to make it more like manicotti filling? The plain fat free ricotta is tasteless..... the fat and calorie count would still be low...
