How long was it before raw veggies and salad greens sat well with you? I'm a couple of weeks away from being able to start adding them in and I'm a little apprehensive. Most things I try go ok for me but when they don't, it's real bad. Were they tricky to incorporate?

Oh man my team is a little more slow/old school they let me incorporate them at 6 months post. I was good by then. Except raw purple cabbage is still a problem ...

A lot of others posters added them way earlier.

Was supposed to be 6 weeks but saw my surgeon at week 5 and was given the green light, no more restrictions. Peas, corn, iceburg, spinach, carrots, cucumber, Tomato, pickles, avocado. I have had no problem with any of them. Just like anything else, start slow and see how you react to it. Good luck and enjoy.

I started at about 6 weeks, I had no issues with them.

Meal prep again!

Frittata? Omelette? IDK what to call it, it is my Mother's recipe without potatoes.

Mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, spinach, eggs, spices

Easy.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
