sherrylynn 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Hi Kimberly, I'm 5 weeks post-op, the post op diet my doctor gave me for 4 weeks and them slowly I went back on regular foods, about 1200 calories a day, after day 2 I began having clear broths, cream Soups, fat free sugar free Jello, I found the Campbell's Gardene soups very good, carnation instant Breakfast and Protein Drinks as well, after 2 weeks I was allowed to add cottage cheese, yogourt, fruit smoothies(Which I found great). It is very limiting i know especially when you start to feel yourself again. Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaffer 1 Posted October 29, 2007 I found Soups like the Gardenney ones were good. I would usually add a bit of Water to think them down a little. I still eat the brocolli cheese one a couple times a week. They are pretty good for you too. The brocolli one has about 70 calories per serving (1/2 cup). Protien shakes are good too, I always have one for breakfast. Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
