Re: What qualifies as "soft" foods??
You can have eggs, mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, oatmeal, ice creme, yogurt, jello, pudding, creme of anything soup. The goal is to give your digestive system very easy things to process right before and after surgery. The first post op BM'S can be unpleasant if you are not prepared.

Re: What qualifies as "soft" foods??
Do you like miso soup? I was hoping I could have that but it's not "clear" enough and am off soft foods.
If I could have soft foods, I would have pad Thai with tofu, hold the sprouts, peanuts and spices.
Hey, can you have peanut butter?

Re: What qualifies as "soft" foods??
well, my dr told me the same thing, but I was too worried about being hungry, so at 3pm I ate a 6in subway sandwich, had to take my dd to a basketball game at 6pm, got home around 7:30 and drank my citrate drink, actually 1 1/2 of them and started the bathroom thing around an hour or so later.
My surgery wasnt until 2pm the next day, so I was just fine 24 hours later.

Re: What qualifies as "soft" foods??
Thank you Sharona...great suggestions!
Dancing Popcorn, I don't like miso but I LOVE Pad Thai but only without spice (I don't like spicy foods) I think I can eat peanut butter, but I only have chunky...lol Don't think I want that yet. I had oatmeal for breakfast and mac and cheese for lunch. I've had applesauce and tea since then and I'm trying to drink plenty of water too
gakris - a subway sandwich sounds GREAT about now! lol
