Q about mushy food stage and crackers??

[queenofbelfastcity]

Have read on a few threads about people eating crackers on the mushy food stage?? Am I being immensely thick?

I thought point was not to eat anything like that till 4 weeks post band op?

I know my biggest struggle will be giving up bread for ages maybe forever...what's the deal with crackers??

Thanks all

Don't know about banders but bypassers have a stage called mushy/crispy and crackers and things like melba toast that dissolve in water form part of the plan

No crackers are not mushy food, you are right

Yeah sometimes it can be confusing with different types of surgeries on the board, you have to double check where you are getting your info, as we can have different stages. Bypassers have the crunchy/soft phase but banders don't. It's always good to double check
