Fruit and Veggies

Hi all! I had my surgery on the 26th, that puts me at almost 2wks post op. I have been on the puréed/soft food diet since the day after I came home from the hospital. The doc wants me to only have protein so I've been eating eggs, egg salad, tuna salad, taco meet, cottage cheese, etc. I am dying to incorporate some fruit like watermelon, bananas or strawberries and some veggies like steamed broccoli, cauliflower, or green beans. Really wanting some cream of wheat with mashed banana in it.... When were you all allowed to incorporate fruits and veggies?

I have a full container of unjury protein for sale. I'm just not a fan. I'll sell for cheap. Message me.

I have tried the chicken flavor I didn't like it. I really don't like the Unjury brand. I just went and Nectar brand today I just got the vanilla. I tried a couple of different protein shakes brands and the vanilla and chocolate are the ones I like. And I only like them with milk. Your right I will just wait until my post op appt to be cleared I guess being a Nurse and knowing some things with other surgeons and sleeves makes my mind wonder. I will follow the procedure and wait I am just hoping she clears me on Friday cause I don't think I can take too much more of the not eating. I mean I got the surgery to loose weight but I still want to eat lol
