(insert) random food questions here

I've seen too many threads asking about individual foods postop, figured I'd try to make a one stop shop here.

What's people's opinions on cucumbers postop? I know they're basically an empty food (and also very low calorie). But if I'm hitting all my numbers and getting plenty of Protein, are cucumbers a decent filler food?

I'm losing at a great rate (yes it's early I know) and I don't want to add too many calories, and would love a little texture and flavor to mix it up from my protein barrage

My biggest concern is I'm only 4.5 weeks post op, and I don't know when it's appropriate to incorporate these suckers into my diet. Reading through old threads on here were really inconsistent with some people talking about eating them at 3 weeks and others 3 months, and others talking about how fun they are to digest

My nutritionist had us eating only Protein for 8 weeks after surgery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
