Just wondering if and when people started eating lettuce? And if so, what kind? Any give you problems?

Thinking about a lettuce wrap in place of a sandwich...

I have had my times over the years where I could eat lettuce and when I could not. Right now I can and I eat all kinds. Just go slow and the greener the better.

For me the wrap would be more of an issue than the lettuce. I find lettuce of any type is fine to eat but wraps can be a day to day proposition.

Just be sure to chew slowly, small bites and take your time.

I don't remember exactly when I started eating lettuce but I did not have solids until I was 5 weeks out. I used to have a chicken sandwich made with a Romain lettuce leafs every day for lunch. I would spread low fat laughing cow cheese down the spine, add chicken, mustard, roll the sides over and enjoy!

I had lap band surgery this year on April 9th and my first fill on June 6th (don't think I am in the "green" zone yet). But, I made a phone call to my Nutrionist today to ask her if I could have a tossed salad and she said "YES". I did not have any issues. ~ Good Luck ~

I had a salad for dinner last night, I use the actual head of lettuce instead of bagged lettuce

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
