Advice Please Regarding Phase 2 Eating

Hello! I am two weeks post-op and I am so sick of drinking the sweet shakes. I saw the nurse for my two week post-op today and told her that I am only managing about 2 servings (30 grams) of protein for the last three days because just the though for drinking one more sweet thing makes me sick.

 

It seems to me after reading several of the posts on here that some of you got to go to Phase 2 (the mushy, blenderized stage) after 2 weeks. The nurse today told me that one of the docs in the practice lets his patients do that, but my surgeon won't.

 

So, will some of you who went to Phase 2 after two weeks please let me know what you ate and how well you tolerated it?

 

I really want to follow the docs orders but I just don't think I can stand two more weeks of this. I'm starting to feel weak from not getting all the protein and carbs in.

 

Please help!

 

Thanks very much.

I started with some soft scrambled eggs, yogurt, and cottage cheese. I would even suggest some soup, and if it has stuff in it, puree it so that it thickens a bit. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

I'm also doing the mushy stuff I am starting my 3rd week on this past Saturday and my DR told me as long as my stomach can handle eating mushy foods.I added chicken and hominy and and put it in a chopper with some broth and it went down real well..so I was able to get some real protein in my body..lol

That's good to hear. Thanks. Did you blend to a liquid consistency? I can't wrap my mind around what that would look and taste like. Thanks for your advice.
