Hi, I'm new here and I am 8 days post op. I was told by my surgeon to start mushy food around the 22nd. So heres a bunch of questions:
Some people eat fish. Am I supposed to puree this or are they soft enough on their own? I also notice people eat refried Beans and I know for a fact those can be very thick. Is that okay or am I supposed to mix it with liquid and make it thinner? One more thing, I absolutely love eggs but I see mixed feelings on whether or not they belong to the mushy stage and I'm really hoping someone can tell me if they do fit in.
Also, am I supposed to have 4 oz of food with each meal? Am I still supposed to regularly drink liquid around these times? How many meals a day? 3 or 4?
I just want some reccomendations, I feel a little lost sometimes.
