I'm post op since Thursday night, and the doc just wants me on liquids! So I've been getting somewhat nauseous, someone told me I could just skip to puréed ?

I am told not to advance to another phase diet until seen or told by your surgeon.

I was on liquids for 3 weeks after surgery, I think its way too soon for pureed.< /p>

I'm not telling anyone to skip, but i was on puree since day two. I never have had any issues with any food at all. So just stick it out. They all have their guidelines for reasons.

I was never on liquids after day two in the hospital. On day three they served my chicken salad and a canned pear. I have done fine on food. Did not have to do purred at all. It is a good idea to listen and follow your surgeons instructions though.

I have to be on liquids one more week (2 weeks total) then I move into soft foods. Probably next Friday.

Wow I'm amazed at the differences among instructions.

I was surprised at my one-week post-op when my doc told me to start on soft foods! I've been doing really well with them but I have to really push Water in between meals bc I'm so full. I haven't been too adventurous but the basic foods have given me NO problem at all.

I thought I was suppose to be on liquid for a month when I when for a check up. The surgeon is asking me how I'm doing? I was like good. Drinking liquid Jello Soup all day. He said you haven't eat yet? I said was I suppose to eat? He starts laughing yeah you should be on soft food since you didn't do anything but liquid. I said ok I'm going to start eating. I said I though liquid was a month he thought it was so funny & ask you don't feel hungry. I said nope I was full with liquid & I could go with out eating I'm never hungry. He said I'm his only patience that forgot about eating & no wonder I'm was slimming down so fast. Eating was very hard for me I kept vomiting & I was on mash potato for so long. Then month 2 vomiting everything I ate. Month 3 1 wk vomiting non stop my stomach closed up I couldn't get food in. Needed an opening. I was normal after that. Then off/on vomiting & dumping.
