Checkin' In... Questions???
Nov 13, 2009
Hey everyone! Hope you all are doing great. I'm having a good week, just trying to get a little more creative with what foods I can have. So far I've been having clear liquids (mostly jello, broth, SF pudding, etc.) and mushies. The mushies is where I need a little help. I originally thought mushies could be pretty much anything on the "ok" list, just blended up. I def can't eat some of those things, even mushed up. The mushies I can tolerate are oatmeal, grits, some soups puree'd, greek yogurt and low-fat yogurt. Since I'm really trying to get more protein in, I've put in the blender the following: greek yogurt, ice cubes, protein bullet and vanilla flavoring (not syrup). That is REALLY good. Just sipping tho! Slow down girl....! Sometimes I have a protein drink (the choc kind, Premier, which is 32 grms protein and hardly any fat or sugar). I tried to mix up some tuna the other day, with nonfat milk. It was almost SOUP. But I had it; didn't like too well. Anyway, with only being 17 days out, I'm wondering if I could get some other ideas from you. I'm still not back at work yet (I had an open VSG) but will start with 1/2 days next Wednesday I think. I'm sure it'll be more challenging once I'm at work..... And with Thanksgiving right around the corner too! Oh, and I'm down 20 pounds from my pre-op weight! Hope to hear from y'all!!!
