Im not sure if I understood the nutritionist correctly on my in hospital meeting with her on thursday 4/13. I believe she said to start eating cream soups ( strained) sf yogurt, puddings etc. On Saturday 4/15. Does that sound right to you. Of course I do realise that are many variations between doctors.

That is the way my plan was. Full liquids that included strained soups (my favorite was cream of celery) or broth, yogurt and pudding. I basically lived off of sugar free/low carb plain yogurt with a little stevia to sweeten and the cream of celery soup. I also used Unjury unflavored protein powder and mixed it into my soup and yogurt to get that protein up over 60 grams a day. I didn't eat much of the sugar free pudding though, because it's really high in carbs.

I did the above for 2 weeks. Then 2 weeks on pureed after that.

If you aren't sure about your plan, please check back with your nutritionist to be safe.

Congratulations on your surgery.

Mylighthouse: thank you so much for your quick response. Im glad to hear what you said.
Ive been so scared I misunderstood her, but I wrote it on my notes to advance diet on saturday. I was loopy from the pain meds and just not sure of myself. You have reassured me. Thanks so much.[emoji5]

I am clear liquids for 1 week (sleeved 4/12), then will go to purées which includes yogurt, sf pudding, applesauce, etc

I think I got a little lucky, I have to have a appointment with my doc on day 7 before I move into my week 2 diet. I can't start my vitamins until then either. I also have a guide that tells me. Im so looking forward to mashed potatoes and blended soups.

My immersion blender was my best friend in that stage.... I basically used it to make sure my soups had no pieces in them. I used it especially on split pea soup so I got the benefit of all the ingredients.
