I am now 5 days post-op and am having bloating issues due to not enough fiber in my diet. Milk of magnesia was required last night and I don't want to repeat that unless absolutely necessary.

So what are some good liquid or pureed forms of food that contains lots of fiber? I would prefer to stay away from taking a fiber supplement if possible. I want to learn to eat healthy foods that contain the right amount of fiber instead.

Hi!

I enjoyed pureed sweet potatoes.  They are supposed to have a good amount of fiber.  Maybe some pureed fruits (leaving the skins on).  I'd just make sure it was pureed really well.  Good luck!

I am looking for a good food processor right now. But both of those sound like great suggestions to try. Thanks!
