Can I get by without blending foods ?

One thing I noticed is reading about a lot of people blending their food in the early/pureed phases for a few weeks postoperatively.

I mean im fine with blending like fruit and stuff like that that people normally blend. . But the thought of blending stuff like beef meat chicken and stuff like that is absolutely disgusting. Hell im totally fine with just toughing it out with protein shakes and fiber supplements during the post op period. I know I can easily go a couple of weeks on a liquid diet, I just have no interest in blending foods that arent meant to be blended.

I know its not mandatory or anything to do it, but I did notice many people mentioning having done it. It just sounds really gross

No with this Dr you are limited on the cottage cheese, yogurt and regular cheese. Like once a day then you can have a meat. I haven't heard anyone else on these boards talk about a diet like this at all so I am sure I get to be on the one in a million diet lol. I don't mind the blending its not like its a piece of raw chicken or something like tonight I am having pot roast I just put my portion in my pulverizor and away we go, tastes just like pot roast with a texture more like super mixed flakey tuna.

That's why I asked to clarify and you said you could have it if you weren't lactose intolerant, you didn't specify any other limits.

Your diet plan is definitely one of the more unique I've heard.




I never blended anything (gag!) . We couldn't have fruits, rice, etc so I lived off ricotta bake (I broke the rules by using the sauce), Buffalo chicken dip, canned chicken, pimento cheese, Greek yogurt, and sweetened ricotta (like cannoli filling). I chewed till mush.

We were allowed ground turkey and chicken too, but I couldn't tolerate it before surgery, nor after surgery. The ground chicken was OK, but the turkey was definitely off limits.
