Almost six weeks post. Suggestion on Taco Salad without shells or chips with low fat cheese? I am really concerned about the lettuce and tomatoes. Thx

I had taco salad at 5 weeks.. with the chips. Went down great. And yes i was cleared for solid food then.

my surgeon says no salad (lettuce) for 6 months

I am 8 weeks and I had a little tiny bit of lettuce today. It was rough on me, other people have no problem. Best recommendation is do what your doctor says to do.

I eat lettuce but very minimal. I have been one of those lucky ones who can handle any food but sausage. I can handle the lettuce fine except that it constipates me if I eat it often.

Thx everyone! :-)

Just make sure that you do a very good job of chewing up the lettuce. If the pieces are too big it can give you problems.

I had a salad from Chipotle at 6 wks but I had them leave off the rice, sour cream & cheese. It tasted heavenly & I had no problems. It was enough for 3 meals.
