Would those of us who have had surgery please tell what you are eating in the week to weeks following surgery? I'm really curious about this especially when it comes to the protein. Thank you for sharing!

Hi! My doc has me on a high-protein low-carb diet one week before surgery....it kinda sucks cause I absolutely LOVE potatoes!!!! :-) Chicken and eggs have become my new go-to meals and snacks!!!!

full liquid sugar free diet: 24-32 oz nutritional beverage, 1/4 c cottage cheese, 3 oz light or greek yogurt w/o fruit, 3 oz of strained cream soup w/skim milk

i am to rotate items every 3 hours and incorporate 24 oz of water or crystal light.

1-2 days postop- sf liquids, jello 0, broth, sf popsicles.

3-6 days postop- same as about but add milk,yogart,hot cereal,sf applesauce,pureed fruits

7-49 days postop- deli meat,fish,tofu,hot cereal,string cheese,cooked vegetable

8 weeks & beyond..more solids foods...protein first
