How do I eat after digestive tract surgery?

I find that staying hydrated and walking as much as possible are also helpful to prevent constipation.
Since surgery I can no longer eat spicy foods, or much red meat. Fish and fowl are ok. Gave up alcohol except for one drink with a friend last January (none since April surgery).

@zacharycat your points very well taken….i gave up alcohol totally, no problem, easier after CRC.. and even simple walking/exercise makes a difference… and I love my self-created ‘’dancercise’’…

Hello @zacharycat
Yes, hydration and exercise are very helpful in preventing constipation. Avoiding red meats and spicy foods is essential for me as well. Each of us probably has "trigger foods" that we avoid. It may be different for each of us. Keeping track of our food choices and symptoms is a good way to find the foods that are problematic.
