So today I was in the office and some lady said she was already eating steaks and everything at 4 weeks out. So How many of you have done the same right now.
i just had the chili from Wendy’s and it was great just couldn’t have the beans only the sauce and meat.

I mean I was cleared for soft food after 2 weeks and everything but salad and raw veggies at 4. I've already eaten steak.

Surgeons food progressions all look different. I don’t think I could tolerate steak in the first month.

I could not eat steak in the first 6 months and i still do not tolerate red meat very well probably eat to fast or something just does not sit well with me any more

I could eat pretty much anything after week 3.

I don't remember what my surgeon's plan was at that juncture, but I personally wouldn't have been able to tolerate steak then.

I can barely handle cottage cheese and ground turkey meat in week 3, as much as I love a steak.

I was cleared for everything by week 5.

I was able to eat steak...maybe only like 1 oz of it, but it was fine going down (and stayed down).

Everyone's plan is different. Listen to your team, but more importantly, listen to your body.
