I know that post op 2 week diet can be so hard. I was able to eat the sugarfree pudding 3 days post op (per my doctors sheet of allowable foods). I actually tried putting in my Injury protein but didn't like how it made it taste so I didn't try it again. I questioned myself a lot during the first month because the weight loss can be slow due to the body trying to recover from surgery and the stress of it. However, use it as the tool it is meant to be and it will come off. I also had my mother in law make me some beef broth to just have a change in taste. I think it was the best I ever tasted in my life. :cursing: Good luck just a few more days and you will move on to soft food!
