I am curious about your doctors guidelines after surgery.

Mine:

• Clear liquids for 4 days
  
• Full liquids for 10 more days
  
• Mushies for 2 full weeks
  
• Soft foods for one more week
  

Very strict in my oppinion but I'd love you to share your doctors rules!

hmmmm I forget his name but know exactly who you are talking about he did ny nose deal too...that was the worse kind of YUCK. Hes seems like hes the flunkie who has to do things like "the nose" and "fills". How are you feeling? How many cc's did he put in? Could you choose or did he have an oppinion on where to start? You are on normal food now right?

He has no sense of humor, really dry. Mary has the same sarcasm I do which makes her fun to see! He put 5cc to start and had me drink Water to see how it went down... so he didn't want it sitting there... so we ended up with 4.25cc basically he went on my feedback. I think the syringe holds 6cc. I can basically eat what I could before, so I think I need more...but I am giving myself time to adjust. I am basically maintaining again. I have noticed when I lose a bunch of weight now, once I start eating again "normal" I don't gain. like the other week when I got sick, didn't gain that back either! First time in my life! I am happy with how it is going.

My doc said clear liquids for the first 24 hours, then full liquids till the 2 week mark, then mushies for the next 2 weeks, and at a month out I can transition to real food. The only exclusion to that is red meat, which I am not allowed to have for 6 months. But I know he's on the conservative side.

clear liquids and protein shakes for 3 weeks

pureed food for week 4

chopped food for week 5

regular foods starting week 6
