    Thank you for asking this. I hadn't thought of avocado. HOORAY for avocados!!!

  • I make tuna fish "sandwiches". I mix the avocado with the tuna instead of mayo and wrap in warm baby spinach leaves.

  • I ate them just sliced. Great food. Gives you the right fats and in the soft food stage some much needed calories.

Nobody told me I could, I just did I love avocado yummy!!! You make me want to have some with my dinner tonight

You guys are lucky! My NUT is very resistant to us eating avocado because it's "easy to overeat it". I really haven't even tried but I do love avocado!

Yum!! How far out are you??

I am 3 weeks post op. I started soft foods yesterday. Thin sliced deli meats are on my list, hopefully they are on yours too! There are so many things you can wrap up with turkey or ham - guacamole, cheese, hummus, sweet potatoes, etc... I could only eat about half of one turkey and avocado wrap, but am starting to get hungry so will probably eat the other half soon!

If that's her only reason just measure it out. I have been eating guacamole, measuring out 2 tbl and tracking. To me you can overeat ANYTHING you put your mind to. ( makes me wonder if the NUT overeats this particular food). ;-)

I'm 3weeks in and I couldn't wait to get some type of food I was starving on the liquid diet so once I got my clearance last week I been having a ball even though I could only hold about 2oz so I had a taste for some avocado and I felt like I was in heaven.

Your NUT is just mean and spiteful!

Just sayin... :(

I didn't until I reached goal, but ask your dietitian. They're all different. I eat guacamole now, not a lot but when we eat fajitas, I don't eat the flour tortilla, I eat the meat, guacamole and a little beans and rice. Yummy!

I never even asked my Nut I just have to see what works for me I think you could have at least a tbs of it you just have to have control at the end of the day it was your ultimate life change not there's :~) I'm just saying!!!

I get a thin slice of havarti cheese and lay a slice or two of deli chicken on top then put a slice of avocado on top of that, roll it up and it is a meal.

That sounds really good. When were u able to start eatin tuna and spinach? I'm only on soft foods

I was sleeved on 3/6 so Ive been on regular food for a bit...although there's not much I can tolerate...

Avocado and Himalayan sea salt is amazing I normally eat it solo I cut the avocado in half crack some salt over it and dig in with a small spoon

Avocado is a completely natural food, not processed, so clean eating. Yes, they are high in fat, but good fat. My NUT encouraged me to eat them!

I just made a healthy guacamole and ate it with a spoon! Now I add to all sorts or just eat it sliced.

I'm just wondering? How often everyone has to go to the NUT? my doctor told me i only need to go when I see him. (Back to back appts). Which is 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months & then a year....

I'm almost 5 months post op. one of my favorites is 2 oz of southwest seasoned chicken breast chopped with half a small avocado, chopped onion and dill pickle relish to taste, mash it up and eat. YUMMY!
