Question:
Two Questions on Post Op Diet

Should I be able to eat a full cup of yogurt at only 11 days postop? Does ever doctor keep their patients on eight weeks of pureed food when they have Open RNY?    — Lisa N M. (posted on June 3, 2002)

Hi - I'm not sure about the yogurt but my doctor/dietitian have set up an 8 week pureed plan for their post-op patients. This consists of: pureed fruits/veggies, saltines, grahams, eggs, cot cheese, peanut butter, cheese, tuna/rice (but I found these 2 do NOT go down!), whole wheat toast...and 2 cups of milk a day, plus your liquids. Hope this helps!

We do not do puree at all. 4 weeks clear, starting gently into soft foods for 2 weeks. I do not do a whole yogurt now at 8 yrs. Too much sugar.
