Each hospital is different. I was on liquids only for 2 weeks, followed by mush and puree for about 2 weeks, soft food for 2 then solids...Each place is different but you know your own body too...if needs be stay on one or revert back a stage.

hi, as saski says we all get different instructions from our different surgeons, i was on fluids for 4 weeks, pureed for 4 weeks and then soft food for 4 weeks, i must say i did move onto the soft food stage after 3 weeks though!

At our hospital its a month fluids, a month sloppies and then onto solids, but its is also a bit of a personal thing. Some people take a lot longer to move onto normal food. I'm four months post bypass and still struggling with solid food.
