Cold cereal

I was sleeved on November 1st so I am almost 3 months out but I have been wondering when I can try cold cereal again. Is there a time frame for it?

I'm not sure, I would say try a bite and see how you feel.

I'm looking forward to eating Special K Protein plus cereal! It has less carbs and extra protein. Yummy!

Good luck.

My tiny tummy doesn't do cold very well! I crave chex rice cereal but just can't do it? Its so sad! I was sleeved in October

Maybe you can try room temp milk..? Ijs ;)

I have eaten cold cereal since 3 weeks out so I think you will def be safe to start! I started off with 1/4 soggy weetbix (that's what we call them over here) and then per NUT any other high protein cereal from 6 weeks.

You should be fine , I've had cereal about 8 wks out, only 1/4 of a cup , with lactaid milk. My stomach doesn't handle reg milk very well. The only way to find out what your stomach can handle is to try a little at a time. My dr told me , try anything , see how it reacts , just remember eat very little ;)

Okay good. I've been a little nervous to try but I tolerate cold milk (2% and 1% lactose free) really well. I do protein shakes with cold milk. So I will try a little. Thanks for the replys.

I found this online-

4 weeks after surgery-Cold cereal with less than 5 grams of sugar per serving (examples: plain shredded wheat, original Fiber One®, Rice Krispies®, plain Cheerios®, corn flakes.) is fine.. you may want to let it soak if you have apprehensions, and of course use skim, soy or fat free milk.

I eat cherrios since 2 months out. No problems except it doesn't offer much protein value. ????
