Does mushies include...



Recommended Posts

blenderized meat? ? I have a turkey tenderloin that needs to be made. I was hoping I could blenderize a piece and eat it. Does that count? I've read people eat tuna out of the can during the mushie stage so wouldn't this be about the same thing?

I ate pureed meat during my mushy stage. I would add some chicken broth and potatoes. Or to my tuna I would puree it with some FF mayo. I have one of those small choppers that looks like a mini food processor and I would whip it up in there. I was told that as long as it is the consistancy of pudding that I could eat it. DId your doc give you any specifics on what constitutes mushies?

With my guidelines, tuna was only a mushy when made really, really wet, e.g. more mayo than tuna. Tuna from a can would not have been allowed on my mushy stage.

Blenderized tenderloin could be a mushy, if you added Water. That would make it Soup, right?

My appt with my doc is tomorrow and that is when I actually get to start my mushy stage. I'm not excited or anything..lol I have made dinner since my surgery and wanted to make something I could sit down and eat with my man. Mashed potatos are on the menu for sure. I'm a little leary about potatos though because of the carbs.

Thanks for the replies

If you want potato flavor without the potato carbs take and steam the heck out of cauliflower and then mix with some LF or FF cream cheese. Blend until mashed potato texture and season with your favorite seasonings. It really does taste like tatos! In fact I just had it with my ground chicken meatloaf tonight!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
