No I'm 2 years post op and it hurts my stomach...and I can eat most things. But quinoa and corn chips not nice!

At 5 months u could probably have a little rice or couscous. Potatoes are good and easy to digest.

Everything is going to be a learning experience. What some can tolerate others cannot. With that said I am 4 weeks out and I am allowed brown rice or quinoa granted I have yet to try them because they terrify me lol.

Potatoes? I was told never again!

And no rice ever

Wow never is a long time!! Lol whatever works for you. I'm 2 years post op so can eat most things but rice very filling and quinoa hurts my stomach so I never eat it.

But rice and bread, crackers all those simple carbs slow down weight loss best to wait till close or at goal to maintain.

I was told no rice, ever. Quinoa after 6 months for me.

4 months out and I eat quinoa regularly. No problems at all

True !!!!! I believe you. I dumped on teriyaki chicken and that's it. I've been very by the book as far what my doctor said. I just miss quinoa.

Yeah. I ain't doing potatoes ever again. Well I don't plan on it if I do a few years from now it will be a small amount. Sweet potato I might try in a few months

I didn't have quinoa til probably 6 months out, but I eat it on a regular basis. My advice is to add a bit more liquid when you cook it than you normally would. It will help it get softer and easier to digest. Also take it very slow because that is not something you want to overeat because it does swell a little in your stomach and that can be painful if you take a bite too many.
