Tomatoes after VSG?



Recommended Posts

For the first time, I planted Tomato plants. They are almost as tall as me (although not many tomatoes yet). I've been so excited to eat my own tomatoes this summer, but now I don't know if I can. How soon post-op can I eat them? Anyone?

I would think as soon as you hit the pureed stage, and then mushies if they're nice and soft and ripe. Heck, my favorite thing to eat on liquids was Tomato Soup.< /span> :biggrin0:

I'm a huge fan, but they are something that sometimes gives me pretty bad heartburn, its hit and miss, but they are one of my favorite foods of all time and I just can't stay away.

I am seven weeks out and I eat tomatoes all the time. Seeds skin and all with no trouble at all. As with any food I just make sure to chew them well.

I didn't have any fresh fruits/veggies until 3 months out per my surgeons/nut recommendations. I probably would have been fine, but for some reason, those type of foods scared me. What does your diet plan say about tomatoes?
