How long do you need to wait to eat almonds or peanuts?

[Wannabeskinnie 59]

My NUT said I could have Peanut Butter during my stage 4 ( weeks 3-7) which was when I could eat just aloud Protein only...no veggies fruit carbs etc and that I could eat actual,peanuts and nuts after week 7. I did have a few almonds at week 6 and had no problems. Just don't eat too frequently because both are high in calories and dat.

My surgeon's instructions were no nuts or seeds until 3 months. Since then mixed nuts are a go to snack I have almost every day.

No nuts or seeds here for 3 months, but I could have no sugar added nut butters of the smooth variety. I poured the oil off the top of the all natural types and enjoyed a small spoonful in my Protein shake or all by itself.

I got used to those so now, the regular types are far too sweet.

I also had to wait 3 months before eating nuts, seeds, skins, membranes.

^{I am 7 weeks out and allowed to eat anything tolerated. I eat nuts daily as a snack.}

My dietitian/program at Kaiser has nuts on the banned list forever as it says its too hard on the stomach to digest. Of course they seem to be ultra conservative with all of their rules in general. They also ban coffee forever and at 15 months out, I'm not about to give up my one cup in the morning! I also snack on cashews and almonds on occasion. If I eat too many at once it does hurt a little. It's a different hurt than what I experience when I eat too much food on occasion. Eat them slow and chew them up really good. Wait until your well adjusted to solid food.

I was allowed 1 tbsp of nut butter on the full liquids phase. I used them to hide my crushed Vitamins or to flavor my Protein Shakes. Once I was cleared to eat whatever I could tolerate at week 6 I started back eating nuts. I prefer almond, pistachios or no salt added cashews. They make a good Protein snack.< /p>
