Foods 3 1/2 4 months post op
You should always follow the guidelines of your surgeon.
At this point most people are on regular texture with few food restrictions.
If you've spent any time on the OH boards, you have probably heard about the "problem foods".
My advice is, if it's ok with your surgeon, try it - see how you tolerate it.
Continue to follow the basic guidelines
Eat your protein first
Don't eat more than the 2-4oz capacity of your pouch
Drink between meals
Chew,chew,chew your food
Most people tolerate fish better than other meats
Lettuce and other similar veggies cause some people problems
Keep your sugar intake to a minimum
Try a bite of a new food - see how you do.
It's a whole new world of eating you are entering - good luck!
