Have you had WLS?? IF so then your dr should have given you a diet. All dr's are different in the diet they perscribe after surgery. If you're just looking into what you're getting into I can tell you that MY dr says clear liquids for 1-2 weeks following surgery. Then you go to creamy stuff, he says anything that can fit through a McDonalds straw.... but no chunks... like creamy soups, strained.. runny instant potatoes and oatmeal, milk, protein shakes ect. Week 4 (or so) is pureed fruit, meat and veggies. then at about 6-10 weeks post op you can try what you'd like, making sure you only add one new thing per day to see how your new system takes it. This is of course is only if there are no complications. I had my surgery 3/31/06 and have just this week started clear liquids, again. Long story....
I hope this helped a bit,
Hugs,
