Does anyone know when it's acceptable to eat cheese, if at all? I'm 10 days post op.. Just curious, because I'm making stuffed chicken for my family for dinner tonight, and I'm on puréed foods.. & Cheese has protein.. Just rambling lol

My NUT said cheese can be a good snack (in small amounts). She said to try the stronger cheeses to get more taste for less quantity. Not sure at what phase it's allowed though.

I didn't get cheese back til I was over a month out. Something about it can melt and gum up the healing stomach pouch/intestines, so you need to wait til it's healed. Literally at 6 months out, I eat cheese every day. It's my best friend when it comes to meals.

I'm in the pureed stage and I put some cheese on my refried Beans and melt it before eating.

I did too! Even the tiniest bit just makes a huge difference! I used a pinch of Parmesan

Has anyone tried Nutritional Yeast in place of cheese? I use it on steamed vegetables yummy, healthy and adds a lot of flavor.

It's not like yeast you use in bread.

Never heard of it. Does it have any Protein? I'd prefer to add a powdered protein to other foods.

It has a ton of protein! Google it- it is fortified with B12, too

We can have cheese if it is shredded starting week 2.

So the nutritional yeast tastes like cheese? I guess it would be okay on Soups and some dishes, but not everything.

It's in more high end grocery places. Google it, and it might bring up where you can find it.

You can also order from Amazon.com
