It was delicious ta, I make sunday luch every week my hubby works sunday mornigns 6 til 12 so have it ready for him coming in. My favourite meal of the week also always have plenty left to see me another 3 days or so through the week saves me thinking what i can have each night, my hubby loves veg but won't eat them every day, doesnt bother me. As long as I have gravy on am fine. xx

Hi, I'm still pre-op, my operation is this coming friday. But I just wanted to ask what IF PATE AND IF MAYO is? You guys really are doing well, seems that the hardest part is this pre-op clear liquid diet for two weeks! lol

 

[mayamoo]

I do the same n I always plate up for a lad at work who loves Sunday dinners but can't cook and doesn't have family to go to he won't eat any veg but mushy peas or carrots so I always have a tin of peas in lol xxx

[chrisa]

We left hospital 2 days aftre the op had fluids 1st day had weetabix on 2nd morning then allowed home puree for 4 weeks then soft food but not pureed then onto ordinary everyday food. xx Just depends what the hospital in your area reccommends. xx

Like already said, hospitals are different. Mine is liquids for a week, puree for 2 weeks, soft food with a little crunchy for 3 weeks and then onto normal solids. I start puree tomorrow; I'm looking forward to it!
