I everyone. I'm re-reading through everything regarding post-surgery diet; I cannot seem to find an answer to how long you are on soft foods. I haven't yet made it to the soft food stage but it is next week. Can someone tell me how long you stay on soft foods and what happens after that?

Also - I've heard some good ideas for 'soft foods' like eggs, toast, corned beef hash..... Can anyone give me more ideas? Thank you for your responses.

2 weeks for me on soft foods, but I actually had to stay on it for 3 weeks cause that is all I could handle. Ideas : cottage cheese, soft canned pears, whipped potatoes, yams, sugar free pudding , oatmeal ( not too dry) . Soft smashed beans like what u can get at a mex restaurant or Taco Bell ,

I was on soft foods for 2 weeks, then I was cleared for everything at the 6 week mark. (first 2 weeks full liquids, next 2 pureed foods the soft) Check out the websites Emilybites.com and theworldaccordingtoeggface.com both excellent sources for recipes for all stages.

Theworldaccordingtoeggface is a great resource!

I am I'm week 3 of post op diet. Eating lots of Greek yogurt, mashed up tuna and chicken salad. Some days I can eat with no problem and then other days I have some nausea. I found the Greek yogurt is working best.
