Has anyone skipped the "soft diet" and went straight to "regular diet"???

After RNY gastric bypass surgery, I transitioned through 3 stages: full liquids, pureed foods and finally solid foods.

Did you have any difficulties with solids?

The chicken has to be super tender in order for me to keep down. Try slow cooking it in a crock pot

Chicken is not really a soft food unless you puree it or do something completely different. Most everyone has had a problem with chicken at this stage. But you should not jump ahead.

I know every surgery and nutritionist is different, but the one thing that my nutritionist said to me that stuck was that the people that take their time progressing through the stages tend to have better results. Of course this is all just opinion.

No a good idea,

You're eating chicken? How far post op are you? I'm living off of cottage cheese, a nectar Protein drink and Popsicles.

I really don't advise skipping to a regular diet. Keep to the plan your Doctor and/or NUT gave you. Your incisions are trying to heal. In my opinion it is too soon for chicken.

I am on puréed foods (week 2 post op according to my doctor) and am enjoying it much more than I thought. I love chicken but heard it would be an issue and my nutritionist suggested canned chicken and it works well. I'm a fairly good cook so I'm trying to be creative. Like my new puréed chili- I cooked a roast in the crock pot, so I use 1.5 oz beef, an oz white Beans, a couple spoons of no sugar added marinara and a 1/2 teaspoon lite sour cream on top. It's a bit filling and the first day I ate too much but I won't make that mistake again!!
