Puréed stage questions



Recommended Posts

What are some foods that are able to be eaten(not the common ones like Jello pudding baby food) I found this list and didn’t know how accurate it was for the meats.. The ones it says you just have to smash with a fork mainly.

Did your surgeon give you a specific list of purees you should eat? I have 2 stages of purees, bland purees for one week, then advanced purees for another week. Cream if Rice didn't sit well with me. I pureed refried Beans with a little broth. Delicious. I can also eat ricotta cheese, plain Greek yogurt. Soon I'll add hummus, cottage cheese, and pureed boiled egg.

My plan had puréed stage and a soft foods stage. A lot of things on this list I wasn’t able to have until the soft foods stage . Can you contact your surgeons office? Your nut should be able to at least email you a list of acceptable foods for your stage

That looks like the list I got from my doctor, but no red meat on mine. And I'm allowed Beans, lentils and tofu pureed.

He only gave me sample meals didn’t give me a list of food that can be eaten. So I’ve been sticking to what’s on the sample menus. But he should be in today I’m going to call and ask thank you 😊

You should be able to tolerate those Protein sources, e.g. Beans, pureed. Your body will regurgitate what you shouldn’t have 90% of the time anyway but the safest bet to avoid any leaks is as similar to the diet provided as possible, if you choose other items not on the list.

I just tried cod and started feeling really sick went to the restroom and got sick(small amounts) 3 times and the last time there was a pain in my tummy and a weird burning sensation. I haven’t gotten sick since the surgery and didn’t know if that feeling was normal or if there’s a chance if a leak.

I just haven’t gotten sick in YEARS. So I honestly don’t even remember if that’s a normal feeling for someone who hasn’t had the surgery let alone being just a couple days short of three weeks post op. Just kinda worried me since the weird burning and pain sensation. It still burns almost like acid reflux but lower in my stomach instead of being in my chest.

I can tell you what I eat. I am 3 weeks out in soft foods stage one.

Breakfast: 42grams oikos triple zero and 15 grams of unflavored Protein Powder

Mid morning: Protein Shake boosted with Protein powder so around 50 grams

Lunch: I made lentil Soup and boosted it with high protein tofu. I pureed it in my high-speed blender - so similar to refried Beans in texture

Dinner: low sodium deli turkey with a tsp of low fat mayo a little lemon juice and a teeny bit of basil. I chop the heck out of it and since this is my most textured meal it takes about 30 - 35 minutes to eat.

I have another week of this stage then I switch to more complex soft foods...then in a few more weeks off the toddler train hopefully.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
