Pureed foods? how soon ?

[steph41573 3]

I had my one week post op appt today. Was REALLY hoping the doctor would have be move to the pureed stage but said I needed to be on liquid diet for one more week. I am so so so done with this as I had to do it two weeks prior to op too....Just curious what other doctors are saying?

Two weeks of full liquids is pretty normal:)

You may see some people here that advanced sooner per their doctors orders for whatever reason. But you need to remember that your stomach is still not anywhere close to healed yet

Hang in there it get easier, it just takes time.

Oh that sucks! I was really lucky. I didn't have to do a liquid diet prior to surgery, I watched what I ate but never went to liquids. After surgery I did liquids for 1 week then was released to eat regular food, just had to make sure to chew really well. It's crazy how different every drs thinking is on this. Hang in there, you're almost out of this phase. Just tell yourself it'll all be worth it in the end. Good luck!
