At 4weeks when can I have salad! That's all I want

What schedule does your surgeon and Nutritionist have you on? You should probably consult with them. I didn't eat any leafy greens until 3 months out.

It depends upon what's on your surgeon's program and what you personally can tolerate. I was having small salads with some leftover meat tossed in with some chopped spinach, tomato, avo, pepper and scallion after a month, but YMMV.

I started with iceburg lettuce at about 3 months and slowly added romain into the mix. At about 4 months out, I was 100% romain and began adding spinach slowly. 5 months out, adding kale, which, is extremely hardy. Kale was a slow progression, for sure and of course, I don't ever have 100% kale salads, so ...

You wouldn't think salads are that difficult to digest, but they sure are.

6 weeks post op.

I just had my first salad last week and Im almost 4 months out. I had heard other stories about how salads made them run for the bathroom and honestly, thats what I was hoping for but no I had 2 salads that week (a 1/2 ounce of chopped turkey and a half an egg on it). I think I may have a sleeve of steal because nothing that Ive eaten has ever bothered me and Ive never thrown up. I can say that avocados make me run for the bowl though Sorry for the TMI but poop gets me excited lol.

Ooh! salad sounds so good. I am just one week post op, which means that I'm on liquids. Anything sounds good.

I'm glad to hear that salad did not get the runs or nausea or anything like that, BunnyK. This gives me hope!
