NEW DATE

Surgery is now for December 19,06 any input for post surgery diet ??

Hi Rebeca, My post-op diet is 2 weeks of liquids (very much like my 2 weeks of pre-op diet). Does your program have a nutritionist? If so, she/he should be able to give you lots of information about what you can or can't eat... unfortunately each Surgeon's program is different... but chances are you'll be on either liquid or puree. Good Luck! Marilyn

Hi Rebeca, My nutritionist will have me on 3 weeks of liquid's - Optifast with scoops of protein. Then for 2 weeks, I am on full liquids and then finally at week 6 I get soft and mushy food. After reading the boards, I think my surgeon's program is by far the most restrictive. Your surgeon will have a plan for you to follow and the mainboard always had great food ideas! I've been jotting them down so when I get to that point, I have a variety to choose from! Good luck with your life change! Denise
