My doc's plan was two basic stages, with liquids, purees and soft proteins including eggs and seafood the first month, progressing as tolerated, then everything else as tolerated the second month and beyond. I had scrambled eggs served in the hospital and hard boiled eggs at home the first week.

All doctors are different, I have an extremely conservative doctor, I had a few complications with surgery but this is what he expects from all his patients.

Clears - 1 week - broth, Isopure, decaff tea, sugar-free Popsicles, Sugar-free Jello

Full Liquids - 5 full weeks - Protein shakes, Syntrax nectar, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein added to Soups, skim milk, Low Fat Creamed Soups, or strained creamed soups like Cream of Asparagus, cream of chicken, broccoli cheddar (strained) Healthy Request Bean & Bacon Soup - completely pureed, then add Water to it, so it's fully liquid, some people are allowed cream of wheat - I wasn't allowed that also anything from the clears section allowed, Sugar-Free pudding, Plain Greek Yogurt - not allowed Cream of Potato (too many carbs) Tomato soup (too acidic) strained vegetable soup, etc.

Pureed - 1 week or until you think you can handle soft foods Tuna & ff mayo - (must be very moist), instant mashed potatoes with added Protein powder, poached eggs or runny scrambled eggs, canned chicken pureed with ff mayo, refried Beans with ff sour cream, cooked white fished, pureed add ff tartar sauce, 1% cottage cheese, (once on pureed, watch how much cheese you take in, because constipation is an issue)

Soft foods - 1 week, meat that you cook in the crock pot and you can cut with a fork and falls apart, no nuts, no seeds, softly cooked vegetables, tuna, fish, etc.

Regular foods - or anything off the other lists.

This is all subject to how well you do on each phase. We are not to advance until told to. My surgeon seems to have one of the longest full liquid phases.

Pureed foods (tuna & chicken) are not going down too easy on me. I can get it down but only about 1 ounce along with maybe 3 teaspoons of 1% cottage cheese, but then I have a heavy feeling in my chest and stomach, not sure if it's been too dry. Today I went to broth for dinner because I have a migraine and I feel nauseated, due to the headache.

I will go back to purees tomorrow and hope for the best.

Mine was:

2 days Clear Liquids

2 - 14 days full liquids

2-3 weeks pureed (this is where eggs came in)

4-5 weeks soft foods and progress into regular foods at 6 weeks

2 days. It might have been one day except that they didn't have the report from the leak test filed yet so I was still on the IV at Breakfast time the day after.
