I have been hearing and reading that the instructions are not the same accross the board, so I am curious.

What phases did you have post-op for your diet and how long did each phase last?

2 weeks of clear liquids, 2 weeks of full liquids, 2 weeks of mushies, 2 weeks of soft food, then finally back to solid food.

Mine was 1st week clear liquids, 2nd week full liquids (3 protein drinks and 2 full liquid snacks), 3rd week pureed-type foods with protein drinks, 4th week soft foods, and 5th week solid foods.

3 days clear liquids, 4 days full liquids

7 days purees and mushiness

Day 15 start introducing solid foods one per day as tolerated.

No raw veggies for 3 months

2 weeks of clear liquids' date=' 2 weeks of full liquids, 2 weeks of mushies, 2 weeks of soft food, then finally back to solid food.[/quote']

What Mis73 said...

1 week full liquids, 1 week mushies, regular diet as tolerated!

Mine is:

1-2 days clear liquids

10-14 days liquids, yogurt, sf Jello and sf pudding

10-14 days "soft" foods; I.e. tuna, lf deli meats, fish, Soups, retried Beans, cottage cheese, etc.

10-14 days "chopped" foods; I.e. Ground turkey, chicken, plain crackers, cooked veggies, etc.

Finally, regular foods

Each "phase" is recommended to be 10-14 days but my dr said I can move on when I feel comfortable. I'm10 days post-op and adding some soft foods into my diet.

Mine is 2 weeks full liquids, 2 weeks puréed, and then 2 weeks soft foods..

Mine was 2 wks full liquids, 2 wks my shoes and 2 wk soft

Mine was day 1 - 10 clear liquids, days 11 - 20 full liquids, days 21 - 30 mushies. Solid foods one at a time after the first 30 days.
