1 Week Post Surgery



Recommended Posts

Today I am. 1 week post surgery. I can't tell where the port on my LB is, but I feel better today. My Dr told me to start the next phase of the diet over the weekend. I am kind of confused about it . Do I just blend everything? HELP

I would call your surgeon office to verify this. Every post op stages are different. I had girts and added plain Greek yogurt, Tomato Soups added plain Greek yogurt and sugar free fudgesicles. I did blend my Soups during this stage. I hope this helps.

Hey there, congratulations on being a week out! Glad you are feeling better and getting ready for the next stage. My protocol was full liquids and the surgeon described those as anything that would slide off a plate turned on its side. Check in with your medical peeps to see what they have in mind as post-op instructions and food plans vary so widely. I enjoyed potato leek Soup, miso Soup, and egg drop soup -- but eggs may not be recommended by your particular surgeon so do check. Best wishes!
