Why those pudding, jello and those foods? Sounds like it'd be difficult to eat? I am almighty curious....  Cuz I am vegetarian for 17 years. (Some pudding and jello have gletation, I cannot eat them) I am sure I can find something to eat.

I was advised against flying for at least 6 weeks post op, it's due to the air pressure, risk of infection that kind of thing. I had flown first time fornight ago 3 months after the operation and it was fine.
As for driving i was well enough to drive short distances 4 days post op. It depends on individuals, I didn't get any dizzness, sick after my op so i guess i was okay to drive when i was ready. People who were affected by the operation should avoid driving until they feel normal. OK.
I did get stiff neck/jaw for few days hence sugary puddings as it's easier to eat and to help to improve the strength, also overall mood with sugar fix,
. There is alternatives jelly i believe or veggie puddings. Other foods that is already pre-made prior to Operation, belive me you don't want to cook soon after the op.
I love vegatable lasagna, this can be made and frozen.
