Leatha, I thought the same exact thing, but on my dr.'s post-op diet plan, it says liquid diet, then lists appropriate foods, and in that list is yogurt, applesauce and Jello. I asked about that a coupld of times, and was told it was okay. So, I guess it has been for me, (so far, don't want to tempt fate) but I chew even yogurt, and go really, really slow. I've had gas pain, but no nausea or PBs or anything like that. I'm not rushing, I hope!

Mousecrazy, are you using chewable gas x or pill?

Sorry that I missed this one. Congrads! How are you feeling today?

[mousecrazy 2]

Thanks, DeLarla! I'm feeling lots better today! Unfortunately, also starting to feel hungry...more Protein Drink, I know, I know....

Oops, Tammy, I forgot your question. I am taking liquid Gaviscon. I understand some people have had trouble with it, but I haven't. Thank goodness!

I had my surgery on July 6th and I had full liquids, applesauce and Jello after the second day. I say the second day because the first day after surgery I really did not want anything. I also could have cottage cheese but I only had 1/2 cup the first week. I never got sick. I guess I was lucky. Never had to take anything but pain medicine and gas-x. I did use a liquid stool softner. I think it helped with some of the gas.
