how soon will I be able to start eating shrimp and crap meat. I am trying to figure out foods for the holidays that myself and others can eat? my surgery was nov 2nd. I am starting soft food in about a week or so. will this be safe to eat nearer to Christmas.

I started eating shrimp like week 2, I could only eat 1 and I chewed it really good. My surgery was Oct 30.

Once the doctor cleared me for soft phase and no more liquid. 2 months. I eat a lot of scallops too

Each surgeon has a different schedule, I think I was on soft foods like 5 wks out. Just chew, chew, chew, chew and chew some more. I would get really sick if I did not chew my food well enough. Just try a tiny bit... take baby steps with food.
