What are your nut/surgeon's instructions for food stages? Everyone has different postop requirements.

My doctor suggest shakes. I understand all doctors are different but I was just wondering what other people have tried.

I was on full liquids for 17 days and now transitioning to puréed. Didn't try egg whites till 3 weeks out. I've read some people are on soft foods after like a week. But like I said, everyone has different protocols and I'm following my Dr's orders to a T.

What did your full liquids consist of?

Basically anything that will go through a straw. I drank Protein Shakes, added Protein Powder to broths and diluted, strained cream Soups (huge variety available there) drinkable yogurt, Mio flavored water, Vitamin Water, sobe, and herbal tea.
