Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 When I was at that stage, I ate allot of soups and refried beans. I never pureed my foods just chewed really well. I could not handle what the food looked like after I pureed it.. Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 I have one more week on my puree stage and I was given some suggestions by my doctor. Canned chicken meat low fat with juice with 1 green onion and teriyaki sauce - not the thick kind - kikkomans thin sauce. Puree until smooth Tuna packed in water water with juice, small amount of low fat mayonnaise and 1 green onion. Pureed until smooth. I live on the west coast and can get specialty canned smoked albacore from a market right next to where the fish unload - this has been my favorite. I used to make a lowcarb chicken paprika and have thought about it again but haven't tried it. Basically it is chicken, onion braised in chix broth and paprika and add sour cream at the end. I was thinking about making it but reduce the chix broth and use a very small amount of fat free sour cream but haven't tried it yet. > I am one week post op and I start my Puree stage on wed.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 We have pureed everything including chicken, tuna, tilapia, salmon, hamburger (later on), and pork. Rich ate cottage cheese and applesauce (unsweetened) for breakfast many times but for lunch and dinner it was always a couple of ounces of protein and then some pureed vegies too. He has done fantastically. The doc wants him to continue on pureed food for another couple of weeks (he is 1 month post-op now) and then ease into eating regular food. He has already done that a few times and it has been fine. Good luck, Kathy fiance Rich open RNY 8/5/04 -64 lbs >500/437/373/240ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
