Good Afternoon,
This is my firs posting so excuse me if I am a little rusty at this.
I had my Gastric Bypass on March 19, and my Surgeon said to drink the Clear Liquids for the next 2 weeks. I go to him tomorrow for follow-up.
Yesterday my Nutritionist said I should start today with "Stage 3/4" eating solid foods.
My Surgeon had told me before my surgery that I would do the following:
2 weeks before surgery - clear liquids
2 weeks after surgery - clear liquids
up to 3 months after surgery - thicker liquids
after 3 months - introduce solid foods
Now both my Surgeon and Nutritionist have conflicting statements. My Nutritionist states Phases. Does anyone know what phases you consume what?
I thought It was - Phase 1 - clear liquid, Phase 2 - thicker liquid, Phase 3 - soft solid foods, Phase 4 - easier to digest full solid foods.
Any clarification would be Greatly Appreciated. Yes I will be asking my Surgeon tomorrow also.
Thanks,
Terri
