Is it okay to eat watermelon??? I love watermelon that to me is like chocolate to others. I just ate a couple of bites and I totally forgot how watermelon feels like it just swells up inside u

I love watermelon as well but unfortunately i makes me burp really bad so im going to have to say no way for me it would hurt tooo much!

Unfortunately..I too love watermelon, but can no longer eat it...It just makes me feel miserable in my gut, so I have stopped eating it...Good Luck

Watermelon is a fruit pretty high in carbs. I would eat it in lots of moderation. Berries are very low in carbs. I buy a frozen bag of mixed berries- Publix brand. I eat it with some mozz. cheese sticks almost every day, delecious.

Actually, a cup of watermelon is slightly less carbs less than a cup of raspberries or blackberries and almost half the carbs of blueberries.

In any case, a cup of watermelon is about 11 carbs and is doable on a low carb diet *IF* you can control how much you eat (not a trigger food).

I don't watch carbs and have not tried watermelon since being banded that I can remember. With me it's very much a texure thing ...... I'll have to try a bit this summer. It sounds good, but as with anything I try for the first time after being banded I will have to take a bite or 2 and see how it goes. Now this thread is making me miss summer.

I've eaten watermelon and had no troubles. If it is a trigger food for you, then be careful.

Whether or not you should eat it is up to your personal triggers and the food plan your surgeon has you on.

I get a fill tomorrow so I'm gonna ask abt watermelon!

I have been trying to add fruit to my diet. By the time I get my Protein in, I don't usually have room for more.

I had apple (no skin) yesterday and it was pretty good. I haven't tried watermelon yet. I have had cantaloupe without issues. I can't eat oranges any more though.
