I would like to know how long you are on a liquid program after surgery, then how long on puréed foods and then to regular food? Just curious. Hoping to have the surgery end of September. Thanks
Post-op, my doctor has me on two weeks of liquids then two weeks of pureed foods. Following the two weeks of liquids and two weeks of pureed foods I can begin to eat solid food.

For me post op it's 2 weeks of full liquid (the first 2-3 days being clear liquids only) and then 2 weeks of pureed food, and finally 3 months of the soft food diet. I'm having my surgery done in the US.
My doc said 2 wks liquid, two wks purée, then introduce foods the 5th wk.

My trkp home was the worst part. Pack light, your body is tired and travel is exhausting. When and where are you going?
I'm not sure as I have to get a surgery date, hoping for the end of September. I will be going to Tijuana and flying solo. I am from Jacksonville, Fl. I will be having the same surgeon as you did Carterfamily. How have you been feeling since your surgery?
