| i reckon mushies could eat those I&J cook in the bag things... they're not too bad. but yes, i reckon even unfavourite foods would taste like bliss at this stage! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| im not a fan of fish, but i actually craved it last week. so i had a piece of fish, without the batter, and a spoon of tartre sauce- wwas sooo good! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| oh man, that sounds like gourmet bliss to me! i can't wait! on saturday my mum is making these things where you mix boiled white fish, mash potato and parsley. then you make them into a pattie and add some breadcrumbs and grill. i used to eat them when i was a kid. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| hey greebs, have started on lumpy mushies, if that makes sense- more like soft solids. really tender stew, cut up small, and chewed to bits. steamed vegies, scrambled egg. yesterday i had some noodles- chewed chewed chewed!!!! are you still on strictly mushies? i know, it gets scary when you think about what your gonna have! |

| TODAY I STARTED MUSHIES WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| lqrichmondtigers, no cap and gown for me just yet, still a long way to go on this darn voyage. Only had two meals today, not all that hungry, for breakfast had some quick oats and dinner I had mashed potato with some pureed grilled trout....a very nice change compared to good old liquids! I must admit I kinda freaked out when the dietitian said each meal must only be half a cup and only 3 meals a day. I thought to myself hell, half a cup is nothing but when you measure it out and put it on a plate and then cant get through it all you realise that half a cup is alot...but you guys know that already. |

| I am three weeks post op and still on mushies. Can't say that I am hungry though. I assume that I have no fill as say the doctor today first since op and he has made an appointment for a couple of weeks to get a fill. I think that will be a bit scary. Not getting the fill but not knowing how it will feel after. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| greebsgirl76 - nope, my stomach is still a bottemless pit and I suspect the hole is wide open! haha xeilia - WOO HOO! congrats! where's you cap and gown? what are you eating? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| hi guys graduated to mushies today. Looking forward to something a little more solid than the past two weeks cheers alex |

| Hey there, I think every surgeon is different but i know the surgeon i went to doesnt put any fills in when you are first banded. dont get me wrong if i drink to wuickly or somethign i can feel the difference but I just havent fel this feeling that ive read when some people only have a couple of mouthfuls of things and they are totally full...... have you?? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hey greebsgirl76... that is very interesting that you say you have no restriction. I probably should have asked the surgeon this... but when they put the band in, do they leave it wide open? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hey sarah, well scrambled eggs are gogin down nice with me....other then that just mushed up vegies.... :-/ Although IM excited that i finish mushies this saturday im also a bit kinda worried...have to think even harder about wot to eat hahaha.... hopefully get a fill in two weeks thank goodness becoz i still havent felt any restrictions yet but have stuck to a cup each meal with half a cup for snacks...... how you doing.....I gotta say though since i stareted this journey...6 weeks of optifast and and been banded now nearly 4 weeks I have lost 20kg...so im happy with that...SOOO much more to go but its a start ;-) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| hey all you mushies, how are you? any new exciting recipes to try? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| definitely not chewing for 20mins....yuck....i wait till its a nice sized and textured bolus than swallow, no probs so far..but i need to mention this could be because i have not had a fill yet... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Believe it or not chilli con carne blended and then with some sour cream on top is mighty fine! Had it last night. Just made it as I would normally and then threw it in the 'whizzer' for a couple of seconds. Is everyone sticking to the half cup suggestion and taking 20 minutes to chew? I am finding 20 mins a long time to eat a small portion of food AND it is cold by the time you are finished. |

| What about tuna mornay, I am so hanging to get my fangs around some of theat when I finish with liquids in another 10 days. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi how is everyone?? IM stillon mushies only a week to go.....running out of ideas to mash as my dietiician has told me that this week (week 2) i need to start having more lumpier foods to get ready for the transition....any suggestions.... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| no worries steli, im on liquids officially till tuesday, i had rice and lentils and mushed sausage and it went down well, that im aware ...of i currently have no restriction?how long you on liquids for?? perhaps sit down with your son and your soup and while hes eating, drink away?, hey custard and banana isnt so bad a deal..yummo, !!good luck .. |

| Stelie Is the lump actually protruding without feeling for it or touching it? The port sometimes protrudes after a large amount of weight loss but not usually in the first few months of banding. The port "lump" usually feels like the shape of a milk bottle cap. If it is the port and the "lump" isn't infected I wouldn't worry about it too much at this stage but if it continues to protrude after further weight loss it can be repositioned and it's a simple operation, nowhere near as severe as banding.
