4 weeks post op food ideas??



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks post op and currently on purées. I did great the first 1 week on purées, but everything I eat now irritates my small intestine or goes right thru me. I had gastritis one week after surgery, so I’m learning my system is extra sensitive. I have tried the following: yogurt, cream of wheat, sweet potato, oatmeal (won’t do that again or mashed potatoes), tuna salad, broccoli cheddar Soup. Do y’all have any ideas of what other bland foods I can try? I was doing so well, but now this.

Thanks for any feedback!

chicken salad and hummus did well for me. Along with a buffalo chicken puree, but if you want bland, you might want to avoid the buffalo.

Also, don't discount Protein Shakes.

I've been eating Wolf brand no bean chili. I add onion and garlic to it and cook it for awhile until the onion is tender. I only have to lightly puree it because it already has very small meat chunks.

I like to skin a Tomato and puree it with a little cottage cheese and add salt and pepper....what else...yogurt... the puree was really really hard for me because I didn't have a lot of variety. I squeezed out the inside of cheese ravioli and ate it with a little spaghetti sauce with NO CHUNKS. I found it I sucked on little cubes of reduced fat cheese cheddar especially kind of melts in your mouth.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
