Crackers

Is a few crackers ok on the 3 wk?

I was only allowed "full" liquids for the first three weeks then pureed foods for the next 3 weeks. But I know different Dr's have their own protocols.  If I were you, I would check with your surgeon before eating anthing like that.

If I remember right, at the 3rd or 4th week, I was allowed a cracker with tuna on it...it was pure heaven! But, every surgeon is different so be sure to check with him

I don't think that is on Tanaka's list for this early out, I wouldn't try it!  Just MHO though. Call PacBar if you need to for clarification!!!  Best of success!!!

I am just about 2 1/2 weeks out and When I saw Dr. Rumsey that wasn't even on the list for 1 month out.   I would be careful, might really upset your tummy not to mention it is mostly carbs.  Just my opinion. 

Crackers, bread, potatoes, pasta, cereal are on my DO NOT eat list until month 7..Yes, I said month 7. And I am doing ok with it. Matter of fact ,I have no desire to eat those high carb foods for the first time in my life. So, I will follow my Surgeon protocol. I will bre 3 weeks out tomorrow.

thanks for all the advice. I noticed on my booklet i got from Dr. T. It says I can start cold cereal at 6 wks so i didn't know how a few crackers would be.
I have had real bad dizziness for the last 5 days. And just have not been too hungry for much. Heading to the doctors tomorrow to get labs done.
thanks again,
