I am finally 30 days post op, and I am now including chicken, shellfish as well as fruits and vegetable. I am so excited, however when reviewing the listing for the food from my dr. He had in capitol letters do not eat grapes and raisens....now I really do not understand this. First i thought it was the skin, but then necterines has skin on it....strawberries has the seeds....but the only warning I had was grapes and raisens....would any one have a clue as to why he may have had this in capital letters " NO GRAPES OR RAISENS"

ANY INFO WILL HELP

Well, I am not really sure about grapes. I am assuming raisins because they are really high in sugars. That's the best I got!

I am almost 2 years post op and eat grapes no problem. I have never checked the nutritional info on them, but I don't care if they have carbs or not.

After my first baby, someone gave me grapes in hospital. I ate the bunch and then the nurse came in and freaked on seeing the last grape pop in my mouth. She told me I should not have eaten them and I was very confused, she told me I would see why before too long. I was nursing and sure enough, within the day, my baby had the worst colic ever. It was a great lesson on what goes in and how it affects breast milk so perhaps your doctor is concerned about the wind generating qualities of grapes?

I'm not sure about this one either.

I love grapes. I REALLY love grapes. And I got the same thing from NUT. My doctor said I could but only 5 or 6 IN A WEEK NOOOOO. That would make me mad! I could only eat 5/6 grapes in a week..call the wagon. I guess to eat raisins is eating grapes in its natual sugar form and that can be a lot of sugar. Grapes do have natual sugars and maybe that's why (heck, that's the best I could think of)

Is it because grapes cause gas?
