DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted November 17, 2012 I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but fish is not a mushy. It's a soft food, depending on how it's prepared. The only way it could be a mushy is if you put it through a blender. Mushies are just that- mushy. Think baby food consistency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted November 17, 2012 Looks great but fish wasn't on my mushy list. I do eat a lot of fish now tho and love it. Although I did eat tuna... But only because I put it in a blender with sugar and fat free dressing...Yum, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can have fish, tuna, chicken salad, eggs etc. so I guess I should say soft foods instead of mushy. But thanks but I am on the right food right now. 2 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! and elcee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acoleman380 23 Posted November 17, 2012 My doctor also goes directly from liquids for 14 days, then soft foods for 7 days and then on day 21, real food!! No mushy phase i guess. Omg, i have never been so excited to eat cottage cheese, oatmeal, and egg salad in my entire life..lol! Ive had it with liquids and drinking my meals.

PattyGirl66 1,243 Posted November 17, 2012 Crazy, how all surgeons are different. I had fish also on my diet list menu in mushy stages, I just didn't want to touch it. However, I did blend tuna from the can. LOLOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't have a pre-op diet either, but my post op diet was brutal. I was liquids for the first 4 weeks after surgery. I thought I was going to starve to death for sure lol.

CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted November 17, 2012 Thankfully, none of us did die! Common terminology would help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acoleman380 23 Posted November 17, 2012 Lol...im so glad i wasnt the only one who thought they would die.
