Trying fruits and veggies after surgery

Hi-Just curious how long to wait before trying to eat grapes and cucumbers. Dr. told me i can try when i felt ready, but wanted to know if anyone had any issues. I am just over 30 days after surgery and am eating soft foods. I have a nonstop craving for grapes and cucumbers.(not together)

My nut said no raw vegies for 3 months. Soft fruits were earlier, but no pineapple (too fibrous) and no grapes (unless you peel off the skins) until much later.

At 4 weeks post op I am ok to have very soft cooked broccoli. I haven't had any fruit because I never have room for it during a meal. I honestly don't have any urge to eat in between meals at this time.

I'm not sure how the skin of the grapes would set in my stomach and I think I would peel the cucumber before eating.
