I totally get what you're saying about avocado smoothies not being filling enough. When I had my sinus lift surgery, I was pretty anxious about eating anything that might irritate the area, so smoothies became my safe go-to. But yeah, avocado alone didn't really cut it for me either—I usually felt hungry again within an hour or two. What helped me was adding things like Greek yogurt or protein powder to bulk it up a bit. I was cautious about seeds or anything crunchy (my dentist warned me about those), but blending in some banana or oats made a noticeable difference too. It kept me feeling fuller longer and less worried about accidentally chewing something I shouldn't. Maybe give that a try if you're comfortable with those ingredients... Hope your recovery goes smoothly!
