I am 3 weeks post op and was wondering what are other's eating or have eaten at this time period?

I was on full liquids at 3 weeks out. Creamy Soups (strained), yogurt, pudding, custards (all sugar free), anything that could fit through a straw without major sucking. Protein shakes mixed with milk.

End of 3 weeks I was able to move to mushies as tolerated.

I am 3 weeks out too. I was wondering the same thing. I also wonder what most people had lost by week 3 & 4.

I am 2 weeks out tomorrow and was told I could start cheese, yogurt, scrambled eggs, Peanut Butter. I was 242 when I was approved for surgery I had to get to 230 before they would schedule my surgery I lost another 5 pounds during the pre op diet and today I weigh 206. I have been losing about 2 pounds a day.

I am about 2.5 weeks post-op and started 'mushies' this past week - scrambled egg chopped up, tuna salad chopped up, tilapia chopped up, mashed potatoes, cottage cheese, yogurt (plain or vanilla), sugar free or fat free pudding, creamed Soups, creamed spinach, baby pastina, cream of farina, ricotta cheese... They told me to put whatever I was eating in a 4 oz dixie cup and then dump it on the plate to eat. I barely finish 1/2 of it but most is staying down...

Monday I'll be 4 wks out and I get to try chicken, beef, and turkey blended w/gravy!! I'm kinda scared to try it, but I'm gonna try a recipe I saw. I was a couple oz of cooked or canned chicken, a tbsp of ceasar dressing, a couple sprinkles of parm cheese and blended up!! Chicken Ceasar w/out the salad.... I'm curious to see how it goes down.
