Hey!  My name is Kerrie...And I am 4 weeks Post-op as of tomorrow. I had my surgery on 11/17 with Dr. Pohl and he wants me on puree for at least another week (And I have been on it for 2 weeks already  UGH  lol)...and I am completly getting bored with what I am eating.  I am basically living on pureed chicken, mashed potatos, stew meat w/gravy, sweet potatos, and eggs. Oh and some tuna and salmon...Does ANYONE have any ideas as to things I can do or eat to make it not so painful for another week?  Any help would be wonderful :o)

Greek Yogurt (add 1 packet of Splenda or some SF perserves)
Bananas
Protein Smoothies (Google and find some fabulous tasting smoothies)

It will get better, I promise! 

Congrats on making it to the loser's bench!

Hi Kerry,  I know it seems like forever that you have to be on pureed foods,  but this is really a short time in the scheme of things.  This too shall pass! LOL  You are doing great and you WILL graduate to soft and then harder foods.  And THEN this will be all just a memory.  Keep the faith!!  You'll get there!    Eldy
