I thought it would be a good idea to share ideas for pureed foods.  

Here are some foods (most of which are high protein) I have tried and liked:

Egg drop soup - blended, braunschweiger, crustless pumpkin pie, egg salad, pb2 (from Amazon) mixed with yogurt and protein shakes, and scrambled egg.

Hi Everyone,

I had my vsg surgery Oct 22, 2014.  I am at the pureed diet stage and thought I was doing ok.  I have gained back a few pounds....(4, did get down 20 lbs but now at 16 lost)

What am I doing wrong that I'm gaining on day 10 and 11?

Me too.  I think it is the high sodium in the soups etc.  Discouraging, I know...

I am not walking on a regular basis yet.  I am back to work and I am at a computer for ten hrs a day.  I walk during breaks though.  I am drinking shakes, eating a few pureed foods.  nothing too much yet

Hi, are you getting in all your protein . You should get like 40 grams a day. Oh and watch what you are drinking. I found that u can drink your calories, that causes problems too
