Diet Phases ?!?!
ok so I am concerned a bit ! I am 9 days out of surgery and have been on clear liquids thus far ; I had my post op appt today and the surgeon told me to come home and eat some eggs he told me to start my soft foods diet ....didnt mention anything about a full liquid or purree or anything he just said start your soft foods then next week start the regular foods just dont eat steak ! personally I feel like he is off his rocker, I have been having such a tough time even dealing with the clear liquids ..isnt it unsafe to advance that quickly ..I basicall had to ask him about each other phase and he was like " well if you insist go ahead and do the full liquids for a day or 2 " this is nothing like what my nut and I talked about they way i understood was that i wouldnt even be on soft foods until 6 weeks out ... advice or input ..?! I want to lose as much weight as possible and PROTECT THE SLEEVE 1
