At what stage of the PO diet can these foods be eaten?

[suejersey 263]

The majority of them are full foods again - stage four is what my NUT called it. Yogurt, cottage cheese, ricotta, eggs would probably be stage 3, soft foods.

Basically for myself the way I got basically all my substantial Protein in stage one and two was from Protein drinks. Stage 3 I was able to get more from food, stage four I still have one scoop of Protein powder a day and perhaps a Protein par plus food to get my protein - but I also have a higher calorie count and protein number now being 9 months out.

Every program is different. I could all of these except beef and Jerky after my two week post-op appt. Was cleared for beef and jerky at 6 weeks. But I didn't eat jerky till I was further out.
