Cream Of Wheat

[SleeveShelly 75]

I am just 6 days post op and I love cream of wheat. Is it considered a liquid or do I need to limit myself to a couple tbsp?

If you put more milk or Water to make it liquid enough to be able that drink through the straw it is full liquid. ( don't drink through the straw just the consistency)

otherwise I think it is soft food.

I like oatmeal and put a lot of milk to make my oatmeal as a drink not the sour cream consistency.

But if you are allowed to eat soft food already I think they recommend to start with 2 table spoons.

My doctor considers Cream of Wheat a pureed food so I was allowed it after 14 days. You should have received specific instructions from your surgeon and NUT and should follow those instructions.

I was allowed Cream of wheat from Day 7 but I need to do it liquefy.

My doctor says that cream of wheat can be made to a soupy consistency in the full liquid stage.
