Just curious how the stages go on the post op diet...today im 10 days out and not sure if its time for the mushy/puree stage yet...I have already had some thinned out oatmeal and cream of wheat...so far everything has went down fine. looking for some more protein options...

My nut and Dr. said d only way to cause a leak with food is If u eat a whole burrito early on. Every Dr. If diff so just follow there rules. I got a revision from lap band to sleeve with a very low bmi and his diet for me was a little diff. I did protein drinks as soon as i got home and he said If ur hungry u could already Try yogurts and a little refried beans. Which I havent done d beans till I see him Tomorrow. Just take it slow and see how ur tummy feels.

The diet plan I am on is... the morning after the surgery - clear liquids. The afternoon of the same day - full liquids. The next day, day three, at home, pureed foods for two week. Then soft foods for a couple of months. Month two or three, pretty much anything goes.

I have not seen one piece of data that shows somebody is dead from eating puréed food at 10 days instead of 14.

Ha... Yeah, I should have been dead... a few weeks ago!
