post op food help

Hi everyone I'm Zoë and I had my surgery on 2nd March 2016 at the Whittington health hospital, London so I'm 4weeks out,

Would like to ask, I'm getting ready board with food, I'm a vegetarian and finding it really hard to eat something different, its the same thing all the time. Could I have some ideals please to try.

Hope to hear something soon.

I had my op 3 days after you! At the BMI hospital in Orpington, Kent. I'm eating a lot more solid foods now but just chewing them loads and load until they have a purée texture. I forgot to mention I also get these amazing Soups from Aldi called Ilumi which are gluten free and they taste AMAZING. Stocking up on more of those today! X

I live in Kent, il have to try those soups, the last two days I've developed really blistering lips so going to call team tomorrow. Do you live in Kent area?

Same here! My lips are so dry and cracked since last week and I've noticed that my skin all over in general, is SO dry. I think it might be because I'm just not drinking enough fluids. I live in Croydon but work in London if you ever fancy meeting up for a chat xxx

Is baby food a viable option? I quite like some baby foods.

For my pasta/rice substitute I eat "Miracle Noodles". Google them to find out all about them. When washed, dried and cooked properly they are wonderful.

Good luck in your search. :)
