Craving Tomatoes...when can I have them?

I'm almost 4 weeks post-op and craving tomatoes. When can I have them? If I took the skin off, I could make it a mushy food, but then I worry about the seeds. Guidance anyone?

I have been eating tomato Soup for several weeks, so not so concerned about the acid in the tomatoes.

I don't see a problem why you can not have them now. Make sure you chew them fully.

I can't eat any veggies or fruits until 8 weeks

I had them about a week ago. Did fine with them and eating more for supper tonight. Surgery June 3rd. I say go for it. If worried about about the seeds just cut it thin and pick around them

Glad I'm not the only one craving tomatoes! I tried tomato around week 5. I just did a slice, peeled it and scooped some of the seeds out. It was delicious! I started adding diced tomato to my tuna, also. So good!

I had sliced tomatoes at week 4. With no issue. I made sure they were very ripe, and didn't eat the skins.

Yay! Mine are not quite ripe in the garden yet and I am 3 weeks post op, so I will be good to go when they are ready!

I had to wait 3 months for raw veggies with the exception of lettuce & tomato. I was able to have those at 4 weeks. I haven't really felt like the lettuce, but grape/cherry tomatoes have been great.

I have been craving tomatoes too! I have always liked them but it has almost become an obsession! Got some Campbell's Sweet Basil Tomato Bisque soup to soothe the craving.
