At 6 weeks post surgery I'll be going home for Christmas. They don't know! I haven't told anyone. What can I eat to blend in?

They are used to me being on some crazy diet program off and on for all of my life so it won't be that strange although I know they find it annoying when I'm picky about eating. Oddly not the times when I'm eating every scrap in the house and costing them a fortune...anyway I digress. I am planning on being all liquid for four weeks and so it'll only be a couple weeks of starting to eat some puréed foods and things so it's going to be really a challenge.

Any foods and tricks you guys can suggest? thanks so much!

Doctors typically suggest a BRAT diet for diarrhea. Bananans, rice, applsauce, toast.

I was going to suggest something along those lines too.

Just eat what you can eat at that stage, if someone questions you, you can say your stomach is bothering you. If they still press for questions, just tell them you have explosive diarrhea, that will stop that subject dead in its tracks.

How soon do most people start adding fats? I can find soft foods but it seems the only lower carb ones have a lot of fat. I'm new so a little scared of fitting in only to barf at dinner! Lol
