There was about 3 months of forcing down a liquid diet. But after that I began with a "bland" diet of anything that sounded good. At about 5 months post op I'd say I was back to a normal diet. But I did learn to avoid foods that did not digest well such a some kinds of raw veggies and nuts. Each person has to listen to their body. It will let you know what it needs. If a patient is having difficulty with digesting foods, just talk to you doctor. There are oral enzymes that can be taken that are very helpful.

Hello @jadedprincess

I appreciate the information you and @ahtaylor provided. It is obvious that each person's post-surgery diet can be different depending on the type of surgery and how your body responds.

From your post, it sounds like you are taking some oral enzymes. Would you share, as you are comfortable doing so, what enzymes you are taking and how they are helping?

Hi @jadedprincess

It has been a while since you last posted and I was wondering how you are doing. How are you feeling these days? Is your eating plan beginning to normalize?
