Just curious...what did they tell you to eat then for Breakfast if not oatmeal?

Yogurt,cottage cheese, stuff like that.

Got it! I have Yogurt as a snack and cottage cheese on week 4 yet oatmeal right away. But the oatmeal is blended and watered down with almond milk so it's like a Soup. It's so strange to read all the different courses doctors have asked us to follow :).

It is strange. Their directions both pre op and post op vary so vastly!

Cream of wheat sounds good as well as grits

I have eaten oatmeal without issue. I get the non-instant oatmeal and instead of milk and sugar, I used a vanilla Premier Protein shake. I don’t eat oatmeal every day or even every week. But I do eat it from time to time. Especially if I feel really fatigued. The shot of high quality carbs peps me up.
