What are you Jan 12'ers eating post op?

Thanks for the tip Barb! I appreciate it.

I am on purees and the best things for me are tuna and mayo in the blender, chicken and chicken broth in the blender, and baked salmon and cream cheese in the blender.

i have not tried eggs yet, but plan to try that too with some cheese.  I'm pretty afraid to venture to far out right now!

But the salmon is awesome!!!

The salmon and cream cheese sounds really yummy. I am gona have to try it!!
Thanks!

I had my first pureed meal tonight, 2 weeks post surgery.  I had 1 oz cottage cheese (pureed) and 1 oz ham & ham gravy baby food.  I added some onion and garlic powder to the baby food cause I heard it's really bland.  The baby food was ok.  I can live with eating it sometimes. I had also been adding spices to broth to add to the taste.  I am going to try to chopped meat with sauce tomorrow.  I'm also going to make some sf/ff pudding and add protein powder.  It's great to be adding different things back into my diet.  I'm learning to enjoy the flavors and really savoring it, instead of shovelling like I did in the past.

OKAY- from the world of purees......
Hubby did a new one for me tonight.  Took some rotisserie chicken and put it in blender with some low fat ranch dressing.  DELISH!

He aso did some of the chicken with fat free cream cheese.  Tastes awesome!  i will eat hapily for the next few days for sure!  All very high in protien too!

Do you eat it cold or hot?

I am on the soft food stage now and nothing seems to agree with me. I take it one bite at a time. I finally started my calcium pills and they made me . So now I need to find something that's chewable. I tell ya, it's a process and a learning experience. I welcome all the challenges because I know in the end it will be worth it. Good luck to you!!

Bariatric Advantage offers calcium losenges. That is what I use. they have them in cinnamon flavor. I like the tase f them and I don't get sick from them.
Viactiv makes a calcium chewable also. I have heard other people here talk about them, but I have never used them.
I hope you start to get somes foods in that agree with you. What are you trying so far?

Hi All, I had my RNY 01/12 had my first post op visit today. Started on soft/pureed a few days ago (just could not handle the liquid diet anymore)  I enjoy  1/4 of a cup serving at a time of cream of wheat, malt-o-meal, scrambled egg with salsa & low fat sour cream, re fried beans w/melted shredded cheese, french onion soup w/ melted cheese, miso soup, tuna salad w/ fat free mayo pureed. I am also getting to enjoy V8 juice. I am not tolerating any protein drinks for some reason (milk or soy) any suggestions? Thanks, Happy Eating & Best Wishes To You All On Our Road To Recovery, Robin
