I don't have a problem with it, but I think everyone is different.

I haven't been told to stay away from it. I still eat salad and have lettuce on sandwiches.

I have only tried romaine and iceberg and haven't had any problems with either.

Over the last 16 months I went through stages where I could eat shredded lettuce and long periods of time when I would always get stuck. Right know I can.

In 18 months not one problem with lettuce. For me it's a slider (with dressing, of course). My doc never mentioned it either. But, as it's been said ... we are all different.

Good luck.

I can eat pounds of lettuce without a problem. I really like salads and I dip in the dressing instead of pouring it on top, so I usually don't use more than a tablespoon and luckily lettuce is so low calorie you can eat 4 cups and not make much a of dent in your daily calorie intake.

I have problems eating lettuce. For some reason it will always get stuck. I think everyone is different. I try to eat more veggies now.

I have to be honest, I was banded two weeks ago and I can eat pretty much anything just a lot lot less (I chew it a lot too). I had a small salad for lunch today and it was fine!
