Lissa 2,631 Posted May 3, 2012 What is on your doctor's plan? You should have received something telling you what stages to follow. If you're on mushies, you can have mashed. If you're still on liquids, you probably can't. But, some doctors do consider mashed to be okay on full liquids. .Best advice? Call your doc or nut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mmorral 19 Posted May 4, 2012 I am 10 days post op and on mushy phase. According to my doctor 's plan I can have mashed or soft boil potatoes. I would ask the doctor first though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChooseToChange 19 Posted May 4, 2012 The mushy stage sucks, but there are so many other things to eat than mashed potatoes. Stay away from anything white especially potatoes. Substitute sweet potatoes, acorn or butternut squash. Eggface has a lot of recipes for Protein ice cream, you can eat it for a meal. Believe me if you start eating carbs now you will regret it going forward. If you want to learn more tips and tricks from an 8 month-er that has learned a lot send me a message.
