Almost 4 wks post-op and the smell of most foods make me nauseous.

i had Lap band on 8-12-03 and am now on a pureed diet, the first 10 days after surgery i dropped 27 lbs off of my liquid diet. since then i have dropped 3 more lbs going from 378 to 349 i am very pleased with the weight loss but eating is not a pleasure for me anymore, just the smell of most foods nauseates me. i have no problems keeping down my foods, my dietician said most foods i could eat at this point as long as it was pureed. i have been craving coconut shrimp, but i could not imagine pureeing it. would this be a healthy choice? and when would be a safe time to eat it? what are some foods to eat at this stage? i,m getting very bored with the foods i,m eating. scrambled eggs, applesauce, cottage cheese, soups etc. any comments would be appreciated. Thanks and "God Bless"
