I am just curious if fruit is allowed in protein shakes after surgery when you are in the liquid stage.

It would depend on your surgeon's plan. I could add fruit to my protein shakes once I was on pureed foods, because essentially it's pureeing fruit in the shakes.

It wasn't for me, but my surgeon doesn't allow fruit for the 1st year! Did you come home with a booklet or some instructions about each phase? Maybe it might say in there, if not call tomorrow and ask.

I am pre-op, however, I am trying to learn ALL that I can before I am there.

I stayed away from fruit for the first three months or so. Then very sparingly. The peels and tiny seeds could get caught in the healing stitches early out. I did not want to take any chances.
