Pureed Foods

I would have never thought I would be this EXCITED to eat pureed foods! I had my 2 weeks post op visit this morning and I have been cleared from my liquid diet. I have lost 11 lbs from my 2 week pre-surgery liquid diet and 15 lbs from my 2 week post surgery liquid diet. So hard to believe just when I would never be thin again and now its really starting to happen. Should I have tuna and quacamole or pureed meatball and sauce? :smile: :happy: :smile:

    I was really happy to move to the pureed phase too. My favorites were low-fat corned beef hash and turkey chili.

    Puréed moo goo Gai pan. I just drained off the high calorie gravy and added back low fat chick broth if needed. No rice , of course. I found all chineses stir fry that was not batter dipped, noodle based or sweet was good. Just drain off gravy( it is cornstarch and loaded with calories) and leave the rice at the restaurant.
