Would just like to hear how different your post op diets were.

Thanks

Days -four, five and six. Then moved on to soft foods.

Clear liquids week 1, full liquids week 2, soft diet weeks 3 & 4, then normal foods as tolerated for weeks 5+

I am pre-op, but my plan says 2 weeks!

My plan says 1-2 weeks for pureed and I am in the second week of that. I try small amounts of soft foods but I am able to accept so little that I am not having a lot of soft foods. For instance, I scrambled 1 egg for myself for Breakfast today and I could only eat about 1/2 of it and then I felt REALLY full...almost uncomfortably so. I had an Atkins shake (liquid) for lunch and followed that about an hour later with about 3 oz of Greek yogurt. I am planning to have some sort of brothy or pureed Soup for dinner. My doc said to judge the diet progression on how you feel and that it is better to stay with a "level" longer than to push yourself to accept foods that don't feel right.

Let your body be the judge! My body quickly and profoundly tosses back out anything it isn't ready for!

My post op is 1 week clears, 1 week full liquids, 1 week purees, then soft for 1 week then on to regular stuff as tolerated.

chickadee my was the same as yours.

full liquids week 1 and 2, soft diet weeks 3 and 4. Hey, does anyone know is ricotta considered or allowed in the 1-2 week liquid stage?
