^{It depends on what you put in the salad. If it is really fibrous, it can be hard to get down. Otherwise, I don't have problems with salad. chicken breast on top is a no go for me.}

Eat salads all the time from El Pollo..

I eat salads quite a bit. I agree it depends on what is in the salads. I had taco salad last night, made at home with spring mix type lettuce, onion, red bell pepper, light red kidney Beans, ground beef, cheese, a few fritos for crunch. The light red beans are softer than the dark red. Today I had a shrimp and spinach salad at applebees for lunch. I can't eat all the salad or all the shrimp. I tend to have trouble with tomatoes and cucumbers. It's trial and error to figure out what works for me. I never use iceburg lettuce. Sometimes I take spring mix type salad to work for lunch and add things like cheese and sunflower seeds. With salads I just make sure I chew every bite well.

I eat salads every single day I just dont use regular lettuce I get romaine or spring mix not an issue to me

Just take small bites and chew it to death and you'll be okay.

I ate salad all summer long every day, i just cut up everything really small before eating, i can only eat hot fresh cooked chicken breast, cold chicken is a big no no for me. Salad Dressing i would make myself from lemon joice, white wine vinegar, wholegrain or dijon mustard and splenda i would also put some chilli flakes on the tomatoes to save me using salt ..

I eat salad often. Just take small bites and chew well. If I'm eating meat like chicken on my salad, just make sure it's a small bite. Good Luck

I eat salad without a problem. I had surgery 10/12 and ive had one 2cc fill. So far everything goes down. My band tells me when to stop. It's a wonderful thing!

I was worried about salads at first, but once I ate one I knew it would be fine. You will find though that if you eat the Protein in the salad first you do not have much room left for the lettuce

I just started eating salads recently. Sometimes I have no problem getting it down and sometimes I do (but that's most things for me). I say chew, chew, chew if you are going to try a salad.< /p>

I had salads all last week for lunch...I used baby spinach instead of iceburg lettuce though with some chick peas and chicken breast, plum tomatoes, carrots, and cheese. It worked well and kept me full for quite some time!

Thanks y'all!! I heard iceberg was the worst! I am excited now, cause I love me some salads. I have found that me and bananas do NOT get along. I ate one for a snack and 15 mins later I felt like I have a stomach bug.

Bananas don't work well for me either. Tomato skins can be tough to eat, also. Take each bite slowly. If you get ANY pain, stop and be sure all is well before proceeding. I do fine with iceburg lettuce. Remove the strings from celery.
