A nutritionist never came to see me before I left either. I did have some yogurt but no one ever told me how much to have a one time either! I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing!

You really need to call your surgeon, and your nutritionist, if you weren't given the information well before hand in papers or a book, on what to do after surgery.

I'm surprised, you usually even get discharge instructions from the hospital when you left. Mine said exactly what I was to be doing. Getting in fluids, and doing liquid diet, until I was told to do differently.

I can't imagine how yogurt is approved this soon after surgery. I was on liquids for a few weeks after surgery.
