Pureed Cheeseburger???
Beef may be difficult to digest now, as most surgeons usually delay approving beef until around month 5 post op. You may end up with an upset pouch, which may ruin your time at the outing. DAVE

Fat free cheese is an abomination.
If you're still in purees, I would not eat burger. The thing to remember about purees is that during this phase there are certain foods you eat because of their COMPOSITION not just the texture. The meat in the burger may not work for you and do you really want to find that out at a BBQ in front of everyone?
Plus, you need to be compliant with your plan. If there's an approved list of foods you should eat, eat from it. It sort of sucks but separating out your needs from your wants can only help you in post-op life.

I am 8 mo post op and still have problems eating beef, pork and chicken. We had BBQ memorial and I tried to eat beef brisket and then a bite of bbq chicken and it did not sit well with me... I ended up losing the meat but I did eat the potatoe salad and baked beans and watermelon. everyone was feeling sorry for me but I was satisfied and kept telling them I was fine. I Have yet to eat any kind of bread , it scares the beejezzes out of me bc I heard it can bind your pouch up. Just eat soft foods and maybe prepare to take your own incase their is nothing that you can eat. you will be satisfied....your mind may not be but ur tummy will be.
