Stick to easily digestible things for the first week or two, particularly with the catheter in. Things are going to be uncomfortable enough already and you CANNOT strain with such delicate surgery in that region. Use plenty of gas x and don't eat super fibrous stuff.

Good point.
I forgot about that.
Food... all I wanted in the first 2 days post-op was soft food.
Ice cream.... jelly (jello?)
Make sure you have some easy-to-eat food for a guy with no appetite.
