Call his office and ask. My surgeon was very specific about what could be eaten at different time periods. It also depends on what you consider real food. I'm 7 weeks out and I am still on a partially restricted diet until 6 months.

My diet didn't change until after my 2 week check up. I'm guessing your dr will let you know at your 2 week appt.

I feel great, just tire easily. I haven't taken pain Med's since I've been home. Tomorrow is one week for me.
