So I am 9 weeks post op tomorrow and I was wondering about this whole eating thing... Lol

When I do eat, it's a tiny amount, obviously, and I make sure it is worthwhile. In other words, it has to be a serious amount of Protein for me to eat it. Now, I've been eyeing these big and ripe strawberries that look so good. But, I can't seem to convince myself they are worth eating, kwim?

Anyone else feel this way?

Strawberries killed me for the longest time post op due to the little seeds. I would avoid them for right now.

Ok! But do you feel this way about eating in general? The whole if it doesn't have enough Protein why eat it thing?

And plus they are high in sugar. Best to avoid high sugar fruits

I could eat so little at 9 weeks out that I think its redundant eating a few strawberries. I have never stalled and now over 6 months out prob got me out of starvation mode! (i dont believe in the whole low carb thing). As far as "treats" go - they arent a bad choice as long as you just have a few.

Thanks everyone!

I am also 9 weeks out and do have strawberries. Have no problem. Just have a couple, and they are delicious. I also put two or three in a protein shake.

You NEED to eat things that aren't just Protein. Fruits and vegetables are important parts of your meals too!

Have your protein and 2 tablespoons of fruit or 2 tablespoons of veggies.
