June 23, 201610 yr i cheated and ate croutons today, i chewed them up well i just needed the crunch. i feel bad, no more cheating!
June 23, 201610 yr Where are you on your journey? Pre-op? Post-op? If post-op, how far? I would normally say not to worry too much and just to get right back on track but if you are super-recently post-op I would REALLY be careful with things like croutons that can be kind of "rough" and/or "sharp"...especially on a healing tummy. Moving forward, if you are looking for something crunchy...try nuts or Quest Protein chips. Best of luck!

June 23, 201610 yr Crushed ice is also an option if you want something crunchy. Embrace the Stall http://BariatricPal.com/index.php?/topic/351046-Embrace-the-Stall
June 23, 201610 yr Be really careful. You are still healing and you don't want to damage your staple line. I remember missi g the chewing sensation. If you have a Sonic near you try to get just a cup of crushed ice from them. It has a really good texture and you can chew it up

June 26, 201610 yr The chips are salty and taste a bit like cardboard. You can have them when you are cleared by your surgeon.
