@jules26 Wondering how you are doing and if you have a date for surgery yet. I'm looking at your comment here on 2/22. I just noticed that no one left a reply to your question about best foods to eat first 2 weeks post op. I am wondering if that's because our surgeries are individualized. I know for me I was able to eat a soft foods diet. I wasn't too limited except my appetite wasn't good. I had a parotidectomy only. Nothing painful about eating small bites of soft foods. I remember milkshakes,toast and oatmeal, My neighbors tried to help and instead of jello they attempted to make homemade gelatin from the guava bushes out front! It was horrible, so I thanked them politely and threw it out after they left! For me it wasn't a big deal, But I'm sure others could tell you what worked after more extensive surgeries. T
Thinking of you and hope you check back here when you are able.
