Watermelon is a fruit pretty high in carbs. I would eat it in lots of moderation. Berries are very low in carbs. I buy a frozen bag of mixed berries- Publix brand. I eat it with some mozz. cheese sticks almost every day, delecious.

Actually, a cup of watermelon is slightly less carbs less than a cup of raspberries or blackberries and almost half the carbs of blueberries.

In any case, a cup of watermelon is about 11 carbs and is doable on a low carb diet *IF* you can control how much you eat (not a trigger food).

I don't watch carbs and have not tried watermelon since being banded that I can remember. With me it's very much a texure thing ...... I'll have to try a bit this summer. It sounds good, but as with anything I try for the first time after being banded I will have to take a bite or 2 and see how it goes. Now this thread is making me miss summer.

I've eaten watermelon and had no troubles. If it is a trigger food for you, then be careful.

Whether or not you should eat it is up to your personal triggers and the food plan your surgeon has you on.

I have been trying to add fruit to my diet. By the time I get my Protein in, I don't usually have room for more.

I had apple (no skin) yesterday and it was pretty good. I haven't tried watermelon yet. I have had cantaloupe without issues. I can't eat oranges any more though.
