Are we allowed to have them?

I love Cashews. And I know nuts are an excellent source of Protein. But can we digest them properly now and all that good stuff? I'd hate to think I could never have a cashew again in my life :wacko:

Anyone know?

How far out are you? And the answer is yes!! I love nuts. In moderation of course. For me they are a slider. I can eat a lot.

I love to eat nuts! Especially cashews. They are so delicious. Of course we need to eat them in moderation. :) Great Protein by the way.

I'm just 6 weeks out. Was just wondering... Saw a Planters Nuts commercial on TV a few minutes ago and it got me thinking lol.

Yes! I eat about an ounce daily! Macadamia nuts and cashews are devine- I measure out an ounce and take them with me everywhere :) I can usually eat about a half an ounce at a time :)

96 days post op, I have cautiously tried nuts. Specifically cashews and pistachios. No problem except the tendency to suddenly comprehend I've had one too many. So now I ration myself to 5 fresh roasted cashews over an hour. I savor each one, and I make sure to chew it thoroughly. (Not sure I get a great deal of Protein benefit from 5 cashews, but I certainly get a lot of physical and mental enjoyment. ;) )

As for Plantars nuts.... eeeeewwwwww! Unless you know they were roasted/packaged/shipped in the past 7 days, you're actually eating rancid nuts. You can only eat so very little - make it SUPREMO quality. B)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
