Liquid diet normally is 2 weeks after surgery and then puree foods for a week then on to soft foods for a week or 2 depending then you graduate to regular food. Or at least that what i did along with some others on here.... Call your docs office and ask them, Im' sure they will say go to puree unless you had issues, but im sure you would have been told about any issues during surgery...
I was on clear liquid for 2 weeks, full liquids for 2 weeks, now pureeded for 2 then soft...etc.
I was on liquids for 1 week and soft foods for 4 weeks. I was so glad to get to solid foods. Took 5 months before I was able to eat solid meat at fairly normal size bites. I was only able to eat bites that were 1/4 the size of a normal bite. I chew like crazy, but only now able to eat without choking. I've also discovered why my doctor says not to eat bread or pasta. It hits the fluid in my stomach and swells up so much that it clogs my stomach. Takes time and pain to break down and pass. One time of experiencing and that is enough.
