I am almost 2 weeks post op. I have been eating soft foods.

I has open Rny and I am about 2 weeks post op. My Dr. suggests pureed foods for at least 4 weeks. I CAN"T STAND IT! I have been eating soft foods and chewing them very well. I have not had any problems. Why is it that various doctor's have different post -op guidelines for the same surgery? If I am tolerating soft foods how can it hurt me? When I say soft, I mean like noodles, baked beans, green bean casserole, etc.
