I'm not hungry, but want a crunchy snack. What is there crunchy to eat one month post op? I can't think of anything....

Dried edamame and freeze dried crunchamame. Both are surprisingly high protein and tasty.

My plan has saltines on it when you hit pureed. After pureed your free to resume whatever you can tolerate.

Kale chips? Edamame? Wasabi peas? Sea weed chips? Those are pretty good options if you read labels & chose wisely.

Hope this helps.

allons-y

I was allowed stacy's pita chips. So I would eat about 3 of them with a low fat cheese stick. Probably not as healthy as some of the things listed above but it's my fave!

Doctor Kracker makes some pumpkin Seed Chedder crackers...I LOVE them!! 5 grams Protein in each cracker...I can only eat 1/2 of one at a time and my dr approved...I eat them with cheese or sometimes alone:)

I read that someone recommended Beanitos... Looked like a mostly bean based tortilla chip. I actually saw them at Rite Aid of all places! Sounds pretty good/healthy though for those of us who need crunch... Definitely going to try the dry roasted edamame though!

Really?? I wish it'd known this before I gave away boxes and boxes of this stuff before surgery. I used to LOVE them.

My favorite crackers EVER.

This is not quite as healthy as other above suggestions but if you are just looking for a good crunchy snack there are a bunch of 100 calorie popcorn bags. I am three months out and can only eat about half a bag at a time. It is the only time i really feel like i am getting a whole lot of of crunchy goodness without feeling too guilty afterward

Special K has a high protein cereal 10g. for 3/4c. I measure it out and put it in a little baggie. Crunchy and protein Although I can't finish all of it at once

Wellllll, looks like you can buy more if you love them:)
