shrty835 Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 WTG =D> Cathy, We had the surgery on the same day, but different place. Why no solids till the 11th our solid day is the 1st of July, liquids for 21 days. Different doctors I guess. Keep up th good work girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Denise, I think you're right, I have a six week schedule...1-4 day post op-clear liquids, 2 weeks of creamy soups, yogurt, pudding, 2 weeks of mushy food, mashed potatoes, blended foods and then 1-2 weeks of soft solids, eggs, fish etc. So actually on July 11, it's soft solids. I will double check with my clinic when July roles around to make sure of the order of food...because they said I would be on solid food by the time I get my first fill on July 16th. Take care, Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C1BandedBabe Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Cathy I am so glad you are great! Been thinking about ya....Did you go back to work on Monday, if so how was it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Thanks everyone! I did go back to work on Monday, I was tired afterwards, but glad I did it. I am getting sick of creamy soups though, and need to find a fabulous, melt in your mouth, out of this world with flavour, soup! I have seen, cream of potato, creamy carrot and torilla soup on this forum. Does anyone else have a fabulous soup they want to share? Have a great day!

sunshinegirl Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 I enjoyed my soups spicy. I added a few drops of chipotle sauce and a slice of cheese which melts very nicely. I mostly had vegetable beef barley blended well and added flavour. The clam chowder is good as well. Add your spices for flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 I posted a Creamy Cauliflower soup in the recipe section but it is blended. The only thing is that Dr. Miranda had told me blending veggies was okay and I didn't know Dr. O said no blender until later. Anyway it is thinner than the campbell's cream of mushroom if you don't add much flour so it should be okay. I totally lived on it and it was the highlight of my day when I was on soups. In fact I miss it now that I am on solids, lol. Cheryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take care, Cathy Each doctor has their own prescribed diet. OCC is 21 days liquids -- clear then to creamy followed by solids on Day 21. We don't have a mushy food segway perhaps that's why yours is extended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
