What can I eat?
What does your surgeon or dietician's plan recommend you eat? I moved from full liquids to pureed foods. I ate things like refried beans with shredded cheese (that melted on the beans) with taco sauce, and ricotta cheese with marinara sauce, mashed potatoes, and no sugar added applesauce. None of that made me sick.
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.
Hello today made me 8 days post op and I just changed stages from liquids to soft consistency today, and I had baby bell cheese for breakfast and no sugar natural peanut butter on crackers for lunch, and I just made mashed potatoes, and a stuffed baked yellow squash, of course I only ate the end section on the squash and 2 spoonfuls of mashed potatoes, and it was so yummy after all those liquids. Nothing has bothered me yet. Fingers crossed it stays that way. Crackers was the first grain we introduced back in so that was nice. Next Tuesday I start the last stage which is soft diet, slowly adding back in regular food.
