One week out and don't want to eat....bored
I also see people eat cheese and I can't find my list but I believe this was on it....can anyone verify this. My Nut is out until next week.
Thank you for being patient with me...
Add seasonings to your food to make it taste better. How do you normally eat eggs, seafood, cottage cheese, etc?

Truthfully I don't want food at all right now. I am still trying to get in all my liquids, protein drinks I have no problem with but my doctor wanted me eating the protein too. Oh and he skips the purried stage altogether, he says after 15 yrs he is finding that the stoma does better if not babied too long.
Thanks

Probably the biggest difference from one program to another is how they manage the dietary portion of their program, so what one program allows another does not. My program still had me on clear liquids for the first 3 to 4 weeks and then moved me to soft foods, but I never had pureed foods at all. What I'm trying to say is that it is very hard to get good recommendations from fellow OH members regarding what is okay on your program unless you run across someone else who has gone through the same program. For example, if your program does not yet allow cheese on your regimen, do not add it because you see someone else using it on their regimen until you get it cleared with your Nutritionist.
Even though you don't have an appointment with your Nutritionist until next week, I'd give them a call if you have questions and/or are struggling. This way you can get your questions answered by someone who understands the program guidelines your Dr has set out.
However, regarding seasonings and spices, you should feel free to season foods as you would before, with the exception of fats of course. If you enjoyed spices before, you can still incorporate them into your meals now.
