It seems like many of us get different directions from our surgeons regarding diet. I'm curious....

When did you start the pureed foods and what did you try first?

My doctor and nutritionist gave us the green light & no I had no discomfort, I've also not thrown up ever.

Puréed foods for 11 days after day 3 clear iquid post surgery. Am now on day 4 /11 of purée and am tolerating fish, chicken salad, hamburger with melted cheese, cottage cheese, plain Greek yogurt, and scrambled eggs made with a little water to fluff them up.. Will try chicken soup tomorrow - just avoid the noodles. Can just today get down 4 oz of puréed protein. After 11 days I transition to soft foods for two weeks, then regular diet.

_{Alot of you have been eating pureed foods early, did any of you have discomfort eating these foods}

started on day 7 and had no discomfort, 8 weeks out now and very little causes me any issues, have never thrown up.

Yes! At day 5 of purée stage it is uncomfortable to eat more than a 1/2 teaspoon of purée at a time for me. Then I have to wait 45 sec to a minute to take another bite. Can get down between 3-4 oz of puréed protein in about 35-40 minutes. However, for me, water is painful to get down at times.
