How long did it take to eat Chinese food? I'm craving it so bad and want to know how long post op I have to wait. I'm thinking 6 weeks?

I would wait at least 8 weeks for beef or pork in it. .

I was allowed back on full foods after 4 weeks post-op. My doc didn't put any limitations on what I could eat.

Depends on what you want to eat. I had egg drop Soup about three weeks in. I had steamed shrimp with sauce about 8 weeks in and steamed dumplings about 12 weeks in. I had an egg roll about 6 months in. Still no rice at 8 months in.

Can't wait for my first crab Rangoon.

I want some pot stickers! I'm 2 weeks post op so I have awhile. Hopefully I will be cleared by my doctor to have puréed foods tomorrow.

I am trying to remain grain free for the duration, so I haven't been thinking about any Chinese food, but I have been thinking about Thai. I plan to (someday) get steamed chicken and vegetables with spicy peanut sauce on the side.

But we need to be careful here...remember that a lot of Chinese food is fried and laden with sodium. We need to be smart!

You guys are making me really hungry!!!! lol!!!

Yea I'm getting hungry grrr lol I was never a Chinese food fan but now that I can't have it, I want it haha ... Some plain fried rice with sesame chicken yummy..

My friend took me out for Chinese, I had a small amount of egg drop soup. Not bad.

I love Kung Pao chicken (extra spicy please) but haven't attempted it since surgery. I think because I know I would have to have it with rice and I really don't want to eat the rice.
