    Tuna can be hard to digest. A soft white fish like cod, baked would be better.

I think you'll find what one person can handle well another cannot. I can handle eggs ( many can't) and tuna well, but refried beans didn't feel good. Make sure whatever it is is very moist and you should do well.

I was. You just have to puree it.

I was advised to leave it for soft foods, but that was just tuna, not pureed. I don't think I'd care to send it through the blender. Lol

The big thing when introducing any new foods at this stage is to take your time eating. If you try it and it doesn't sit well it doesn't mean you can't try again, but maybe wait a bit. We all seem to react differently to certain foods. One day eggs would be great, the next terrible.

I wasnt allowed fish back into my diet till 5 weeks out.

I started having tuna with a tiny amount of mayo about two weeks post op. I had no issues with it. Good luck.





I tried it and had no issues.... it actually tasted really good (for being blended lol)
