I am 4 weeks post op and currently on purées. I did great the first 1 week on purées, but everything I eat now irritates my small intestine or goes right thru me. I had gastritis one week after surgery, so I’m learning my system is extra sensitive. I have tried the following: yogurt, cream of wheat, sweet potato, oatmeal (won’t do that again or mashed potatoes), tuna salad, broccoli cheddar soup. Do y’all have any ideas of what other bland foods I can try? I was doing so well, but now this.

Thanks for any feedback!

Chicken salad and hummus did well for me. Along with a buffalo chicken puree, but if you want bland, you might want to avoid the buffalo.

Also, don't discount protein shakes.

I would highly suggest Pinterest!! Great food ideas!

Following. Has anyone tried guacamole this early?

Cottage cheese

I've been eating Wolf brand no bean chili. I add onion and garlic to it and cook it for awhile until the onion is tender. I only have to lightly puree it because it already has very small meat chunks.

I like to skin a tomato and puree it with a little cottage cheese and add salt and pepper....what else...yogurt... the puree was really really hard for me because I didn't have a lot of variety. I squeezed out the inside of cheese ravioli and ate it with a little spaghetti sauce with NO CHUNKS. I found it I sucked on little cubes of reduced fat cheese cheddar especially kind of melts in your mouth.
