I recently had surgery on the 6th of February 2019. But I'm craving fruit really bad. How long will it be before i can have soft foods?

I was sleeved on the 15 th of January and my Drs have asked me not to do fruit due to sugar until the 6th month. I had a diet of lots of fruit. I do miss them. The seeds in Berries can be troublesome to many. When I have a craving I drink water or I will buy vitamin water that has a small amount of fruit juice in it. Just got to watch calorie and sugar content. Good luck. You will move past it shortly.

I have been allowed to have fruit since the mushy stage. Tinned or stewed and mashed up with yogurt or custard. I also have tinned peachs with my oats for breakfast.

It is all quite variable and dependent upon the program that you are on. We were on soft foods (as tolerated) in the hospital while others have to wait a month or more. Likewise, fruit is a variable with some programs seeking to avoid it because of sugar content while others only minimize it behind protein.

I've been trying to avoid carbs and was surprised the other day when I went to see my Nut and she said to start eating pitted fruits like peaches. I guess I will in moderation to keep things regular. She knows better than I.

Great advice.

I was on liquids for 3 weeks before transitioning to soft foods.
