0-2 in the puree meals ... any suggestions?
Day 7 and I was so ready for some puree food...
Breakfast: I threw in 3 small pieces of watermelon, a cup of water and 1/2 scoop of whey and gave the ol' magic bullet a spin. It looked sooooo good from the outside, but alas, it didn't turn out as wonderful as I hoped!
Then I purposely got some wonton soup last night and threw in a wonton into the ol' magic bullet. I have to say that I was grossed out on how it looked. It didn't taste great :( I think I am better off with just the broth and then have something else for protein.
As you can see, I am 0-2 ... anybody got some great suggestions for puree meals? I'm open, please :)
Thanks!

I have to agree with CC. I did only popsicles, jello, broth, and isopure drinks. There were days I lived only on popsicles and broth because I couldn't or didn't feel like eating anything at all but forced myself for the liquid. If you sabotage yourself now, it will only make it harder later when you can add more food because the foods you will be adding will not be new and you will start adding things that you shouldn't.
I don't mean to sound mean. I just want you to be successful. The reason so many people put down weight loss surgery is because of all the failure that the media jumps on. If they could see all the success, it might be looked upon as a more favorable way to lose weight.
I am 6 years out, having my second post WLS baby, and know that when I am not pregnant anymore, I will have the tools to get back to my prepregnancy weight and wls goal.
I hope you didn't take what I said the wrong way. I know how hard it is in the beginning. It does get better and I truly believe that great acheivements are worth the struggle to acheive them.
