When did your doctor allow you to begin the puréed diet stage? Was it week 2 or week 3 and was there a specific criteria you needed to meet?

Hi GudCarma,

I was allowed to start the puréed stage at two weeks. I did not need to meet certain criteria. Although, I am certain that if I had issues on my liquid diet they would have extended my liquid diet longer.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. At one week, we met with a nutritionist to ensure we were all getting enough protein. Everyone was so they gave us the puréed diet information, WE is a group of people at the hospital who had surgery the same week as you did.

Best of luck!

Never. My surgeon did not make me purée anything. I started protein drinks the day of surgery I think soft foods including eggs and cottage cheese by day 5. Tuna and ground beef beef by 2 weeks. I think I might have said day 5 for that earlier but as I think of it it was day 14 the. 3 weeks I could try pretty much try anything except raw fruit, nuts and veggies.
