What was your first post-op meal?

[Little Green 583]

Just had my first pureed meal! Everything tasted amazing and stayed down very well. I had one moment where I think I was eating too fast and I felt a weird "backup" sensation in the pipes but other than that, everything went swimmingly!

Here's my first meal-- refried Beans, guacamole, and mild salsa.

What was yours???

I had about 2 small bites of really liquid mashed potatoes. They tasted great

My doctor's plan allowed for eggs immediately post op, so I had a few bites of scrambled eggs the day after surgery.

I had 1 ounce of tuna.

Had 3 week liquid diet post op & then transitioned to soft foods; no puréed stage nor full liquids

An egg & cheese omelet - it was mother’s day Breakfast in bed. I got like three bites in.

Mine is way gross. LOL

I had homemade mashed potatoes and gravy from Christmas dinner, and little slices of Gerber Toddler turkey sticks because real turkey was too hard, and mushy canned green Beans (and it was delicious!). I also had avacado and swiss on a crunchy whole grain wassa. Regular bread didn't work for months...but crunchy wassa crackers were easy. Have no idea why.

I also ate a lot of bean Soup, split pea with ham, yogurt, melted cheese on baked potato, oatmeal. Took a few weeks for eggs to work out for me. Sweet potato with pecans worked well.

One of my favorites back then was half a cup of Tomato Soup with five croutons with horseradish aged cheddar cheese spread on them. I remember that being incredibly tasty and satisfying.

Cream of wheat

I had part of a container of light Greek yogurt (don't remember what flavor) and part of a banana mashed up. The banana was especially delicious!

My first was also Cream of Wheat... which I hate anyway so, it was sort of lame having that be the first thing I could eat (I was at the hospital so I wasn't given an option...) I ate it... well, I had like 3 spoonfuls and was "done".
