Was sleeved May 13th and I'm able to tolerate more things now; however, I've always loved watermelon -- and now that I can tolerate it more --- is it bad to have it MoSt of the time?

I'm over a year out and I've had watermelon before and it does not bother me at all. just be careful because of the moisture of it that it might turn out to be one of those "slider" foods. but my doctor allows his patients to have it during the mushy phase of the post op diet, so i wouldn't worry if you have it once in a while.

Just asked my dietician about this today at my appointment. She said it's considered a carbohydrate so it shouldn't be eaten before Protein....the old Protein first then carbs in the form of veg. and fruits after. So, if after I'm finished having my protein I have room for it...eat it :-)

I agree with the other poster, it could go down pretty easy and you could consume quite a bit if you eat it alone like a snack. The carb. content in it is pretty high I think.

On that note.....I'm off to buy myself some watermelon!
