Food question
I don't know if it's OK at three weeks out on your surgeon's plan or not. You could call the office and ask, if you're not sure.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.

Quinoa is a seed. Seeds are not something to put into a healing pouch and intestines. You still have stitches inside that are healing. A seed caught in there can fester and start an infection. Soft foods are things like smooth applesauce, cream of wheat or ricotta cheese. Nothing that could catch or irritate your freshly cut and sewed back together insides. Stick to items on your lists.
