Has anyone had Pili Nuts post op? If so, how long post op were you when you tried them and were they tolerated?

Never even heard of them. I’m curious to see what people say though.

I love them, but everyone in my family dislike them. They are more of a soft crunch nut vs. like a almond which is firm and a definite crunch. When I first tried them I thought yuck but as I continued eating them I was like oooohh I do like these lol. No one around me shares that opinion lol

Actually, any nut really. Im curious if anyone has started incorporating nuts back in their diet and at what phase? I love pecans, walnuts, pili nuts and almonds. The latter one helps me with Constipation lol. I buy these (Pili Nuts) from Amazon and they are not cheap thats for sure but I consider them a treat for myself once a month and I dont have to worry about anyone else eating them LOL

I waited until I was back on normal foods. A little while after soft foods. I honestly didn’t have any issues tolerating anything that was in my phase though. I probably could have advanced through the stages faster.

Never heard of them, I think you describe them as I would pumpkin seeds which I like.

I have not tried any nuts since surgery but plan too at some point, I may have to try these.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
