It's wondering. Also, anything you recommend that could help me move along and is gentle? I'm 5 days out of surgery, so I still have time, but when that time gets here I'd like to be prepared.

My doctor had me continue the full liquid diet for 10 days post surgery. Today was my first day ofmy phase 2 diet which is pureed foods, pureed soups, etc., anything that is blended thin enough to eat with a spoon and cannot be eaten with a fork. Phase 2 continues for two weeks and then I move onto phase 3, tiny, tiny chopped or diced chicken and vegetables. My doctor said that all three of these phases need to be supplemented with protein shakes for the first year in addition to

bariatric vitamins. I am thankful for the wide variety of protein supplements available.
