ashley nichole 0 Posted May 21, 2013 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 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rem 87 Posted May 22, 2013 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> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockeymumzie 181 Posted May 22, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackie-o 22 Posted May 22, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawnolson 85 Posted May 23, 2013 I have to be on liquids one more week (2 weeks total) then I move into soft foods. Probably next Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrsJB 0 Posted May 25, 2013 I'm post op since Thursday night' date=' and the doc just wants me on liquids! So I've been getting somewhat nauseous, someone told me I could just skip to puréed ?[/quote'] 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.

TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted May 25, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
