2 weeks out- Sopas and pasta

Does anyone know if I am still on mushy foods for the next 2 weeks, would it be ok to blend up pasta soup? Like fideo?

I think most folks are on liquids for 3 weeks - then they are advanced to soft squishy foods. If you are on mushy food already - that is very fast progression.

I was on Clear Liquids for the 1st week, full liquids 2nd week, and puree the 3rd. I guess the food stages and speed through each one is different per doctor. When I was in the mushy stage, they said anything I could blend up with no chunks was okay.

But to be safe, if I were you, I'd call the doctor or nutritionist just to be sure.

Best to ask your nutritionist or doctor.. I have not had pasta yet (3 months out)

But most people here say pasta is really hard to digest after the sleeve in the early stages.

I have been surviving on Shiratki tofu noodles since my surgery in Oct (down 80 lbs) They are filling and only have 3 carbs 20 calories per serving (which I can only eat 1/2 servings at most. It tames my pasta craving

Do they taste like pasta? Is the texture similar? I read about those when my husband wanted to try the paleo diet.

They taste like pasta. I make a low fat phad Thai and a mock Alfredo with chicken & broccoli . They are mushier than I would've ever ate pasta and they require a few steps that you must do to get rid of the smell. You have to rinse in gold water for 5 min then dry with paper towel, then dry roast in non stick pan (some people use a microwave for this step) then add into what you are making. It's less time than waiting for water to boil but I won't lie the 1st time I smelled them out of the bag was nasty. Now I turn my head while I rinse.
