elisa 33 Posted August 13, 2012 My doctor told me week 2. But is it a week after the surgery ( I had mine Last Tuesday) or is it the week after you started Clear Liquids ( I started last Thursday)? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele T 48 Posted August 13, 2012 I went through Kaiser and they said full liquids on day 4. I started today- day 5. And let me just say how delicious my Protein Shake tastes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catracks 865 Posted August 13, 2012 I had 2 weeks of clear, 2 weeks of full and 2 weeks of puree -- so the answer I would give is week 3. I always had an Iron stomach, but I do attribute some of my fast recovery to a very strict liquid diet for the first 6 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deltadawn817 106 Posted August 13, 2012 I could start full on day 8 but I could have drinkable yogurts day 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted August 13, 2012 My doctor told me week 2. elisa you should alway listen to your dr./nut about anything, when to eat, different foods, when to exercise, etc. what one dr./nut says for one person - another dr.nut will say for another good luck kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SunnyCox 245 Posted August 13, 2012 Mine was post op day 10, but I could start as early as day 7 if I was doing well on clear liquids and felt weak/lethargic. I started on day 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
