Had my surgery on 7/30 and started the full liquid diet on 8/1 was doing great drinking protein shakes and yogurt and soups with no chunks liquefied in the blender. Sticking strictly to the nothing thicker than a pudding like they said. Then at 6 days out I started to blend thicker items like a stroganoff that was more of the applesauce consistency. Then to my horror as I was reading through all my paper work that I jump the diet by a week. I have not eaten any solids or really over eaten and anything that was chunky even the purees I chewed them up, did I cause harm, because I am freaking out. going to call my surgeons office in the morning and let them now how stupid i was that i cant comprehend the definition of liquid and see what they have to say. Has anyone else ate the purees when they were supposed to be on full liquids?

Just take a deep breath, realize your mistake, and go back to liquids. Nothing to sweat over

i did the same thing and it wasnt a problem in the end. i was just too hungry to continue with just liquids..

Don't panic you are fine,just go back to your liquids as per your surgeons instructions. I was to be on a 2 week liquid phase after surgery but because I couldn't get my protein down the surgeon said get right on to the mushy stages but make it liquidy. Its 2 weeks today and I am on Mushy stage for another 2 weeks. I am finding new recipes, making my own fresh fruit smoothies adding protein powder to my foods. Remember your pouch is healing.

Thank you all for the reassurance, I called the surgeons office today and they said that as long as I had no pain, nausea or vomiting than I should be fine. Just go back to the liquids.

I only had 1 week after surgery of liquids I skipped mashed food my Dr told me it was ok I guess everyone is different I had bake potatoes, soups and pasta no meat and it worked for me I started exercising 2 1/2 weeks after surgery I'm a Cyclest so I needed to eat . Just listen to your Dr and your body and don't over do it I'm sure everything will be ok

Yes you're fine. Every doc is diff. I had a friend who had 48 hours of liquid. 5 days of mooshies and then back to regular food. As long as your body is telling you that you are ok then you are. Good luck!

True confession: I started on solid foods one week after surgery and had no compliations.
