Dont feel so bad now! Im gonna try n enjoy the rest before theatre tho I dare say ill b sitting thinking too much the whole time! X
I got dropped off and stayed myself. Brought newspaper and a book with me, as well as my iPhone so I could stay in touch with the world. Staff are all very nice and more than helpful. They were keen to know more about my surgery and how it would change my eating habits etc...

Hi Donna I'm on puréed diet until Wednesday and then go on soft mushy diet. Can't wait, although this puréed isn't too bad. What surgery did u have?

Hi Corgi7
I had a band fitted on 5th January, finished my two week liquid diet yesterday, which I enjoyed, weight is coming off steadily and today is my first pureed food, so far each meal I've managed only about a tablespoon of food, I am hoping it gets better as I am now having less calories than the fluid diet. Any recommendations on nice pureed food to eat?

I just purée normal dinners. Today I puréed beef casserole, potato, carrots and parsnip and mixed with gravy . I have enough left for tomorrow's dinner. I take a ramekin dish portion per meal. I have also puréed baked white fish, potato, veg and parsley sauce. I enjoyed this. Mince, carrots, onions and potato is another favourite. The texture I aim for is the same texture as stewed apples, which I have also eaten.
