Most doctors don't want you on mushies right away. They want the stomach to settle down from surgery and the stiches to heal. The issue is not to get the stomach churning and liquids and mushies go right through. Make sense? In your case, you would have been better off having a milk shake, although lots of calories, than solid foods. THis is time for healing. Weight loss will come later.

Hope this helps.
