Fruit Anyone?



Recommended Posts

I like cantaloupe, watermelon, apples (no skin yet), pineapple (canned). All have been fine for me as long as I chew, chew, chew.

Almost forgot.... I put sliced strawberries and other frozen berries (no sugar) in my greek yogurt nearly every day.

Bananas, mangos ,blueberries, any kind of melon, haven't had any fruit my sleeve can't tolerate. Be careful with skins and seeds and you should be fine.

Mango is my absolute favorite right now! my sleeve does not make a peep when i eat that :) And it does not take much to satisfy me.

I'm starting my 7th week and so far I still can't eat sugar without having a terrible bathroom experience. If anyone else has had that problem, do you have the same reaction with fruit? My post-op diet says I can have fruit, but I'm scared to try.

I've had watermelon, honeydew, cantalope. My sleeve tells me to have only a couple of pieces on the honeydew & cantalope and about 5 pieces on the watermelon. I've also had strawberries but only 2 cut in half.

Forgot to mention... I tried grapes (green ones) too but could only eat 4 or 5 (chewing, chewing, chewing) at one time.

I'll be 10 weeks Monday... I have strawberries regularly- with greek yogurt, on a Breakfast tortilla pizza, in pancake bites (thanks EggFace). I bought some red seedless grapes last week and had no problem... until I logged them on MFP and realized how sugary they were. I've also put peaches in yogurt. I've done bananas in shakes and on breakfast pizzas. I've made a few recipes with pineapple, haven't had it by itself. At 4 weeks out I had some watermelon. I haven't had really any problems with fruit.< /p>

My eating plan excludes fruit for 1 year. :( It is VERY hard!

Just curious, why no fruit?

Could be diabetes related diet, no carbs?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
