    I'm sure everyone's different, but my team said tomatoes and peeled cucumbers are ok, but no "roughage," such as leafy greens for 6 months. YMMV.

    I'm five weeks out and compared to what I've read my surgeon is very easy . I have no limitations and I eat small salads everyday with ease. I chew chew chew !

    I think it mostly depends on you. i was told I could have salad as soon as I start real food. Just to be careful of the veggies with skin. Also keep dressing to a minimum.

    Imjustmee you're right . I never pour dressing on my salad I dip my fork in the amount of dressing I need. Cuts out extra calories
