Hi there, 

 

I'll be having my surgery in a couple weeks. But I'm preparing food now for the pureed stage. 

 

I have bought some soup for after, but mainly vegetable soup. I'm pureeing chicken separately and freezing it. How do I measure or the chicken/protein ?  I would thaw out the chicken and measure it per grams and add it to the soup/pureed vegetable,  is that correct?  Or is there any need to measure out the protein during the age? In our binder it says to.have about 60-80 grms of protein. 

 

I'm nervous because I don't want to do anything wrong. 

 

Any help would  be much appreciated! 

 

Thanks,

 

Jen

Early out, a can of soup was like 3-4 meals, lol. Don't over buy. I threw out most of what I picked up because my taste buds changed and I had no interest in any of it. I use myfitnesspal to get protein content on foods if they're not listed.

I'm not sure if that entirely answers your question, but I found that VERY early on my biggest struggle was to get my water in, not the protein. Good luck!

No that helps!  Thanks. Didn't even think about the water aspect either.

Like Syenna says -- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ It's the best tool in my bag of tricks!

Thanks. I downloaded it last week due to what I've read. That should help

Purred chicken or meat sounds super gross but I'm not speaking from experience. Does it actually taste good?

I don't know I haven't had it as yet.i tried a tiny bite when I pureed it it taste like roast chicken  (quiche it was). My surgery is not for two weeks so the pureed stage is not for a while

I have my apt, later this month with the dietitian and I was going to ask about baby food for the puree stage. I will need protein supplements cause I don't see me eating pureed meats. Baby food is pureed, no spices, and pre measured. Just an idea. :)
