What does your guide say? Or dr/nut. Everyone has different food phases it seems each dr has their own. I am 9wks and can just now start to have chicken,fish, or lean ground beef. I can't have salad or any raw veggies or fruit for over another month. :( I'm just excited to have a small piece of grilled samon tomorrow! :)

I have been allowed all food items since week 7

I've been allowed everything as of 3 weeks just puréed ... My NUT said salads I can start at 4 weeks or 6weeks whenever I feel I am ready...

Sounds like everyone is different- I am 2 weeks liquid, 2 weeks purée, 2 weeks soft food, then slowly introduce other foods... at soft food stage but not allowed bread.

I'm almost 8 weeks out, and started eating most things at 6 weeks. My NUT said to add things slowly, see how I did and go from there. I tried to eat beef 3 different times over almost 2 weeks before I could handle it. I had about 4-5 small pieces of lettuce at 6 weeks with a drizzle of fat free dressing and did fine. I actually ate a few grapes last week with no trouble, but really chewed them well. I still peel apple though. I was told no tough fruit or veggie skin for 8 weeks.

I'm a month out and have tried a few bites of salad and did fine :)

Week one, I was clear liquids plus protein shakes made with water. Week two, eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese, shredded low fat cheese, non fat refried beans and half of a protein shake made with milk three times a day.

Week four, I got to add chicken, turkey, fish and soy products. Week six, I'll get to start soft cooked veggies with salads and raw veggies added two weeks later. At three months, I can have fruit and after the six month mark, I can start trying beef, pork and starchy carbs.
