I was on full liquids for one day after surgery, then it will be full liquids until 2 week post op appt, then purées and normal diet after week 6. I was on liquid diet for 2 weeks before surgery and had bowel prep day before.

Pre op I was on 12 days of liquids. Phase one after surgery is 2 weeks of liquids, phase two is 3 weeks of purée, phase three is soft foods for 3 weeks and regular food at week 9.
