When Were You Allowed To Eat Nuts?

[Strangefruit 179]

My favorite pre op snack was a piece of lite cabot cheese (50 cal), 6-7 almonds and 2-3 olives...

How long before you were allowed to eat nuts? I am 3 weeks post op... Thanks.

I don't think nuts are on the agenda for quite a while. I am 8 weeks and will not be eating nuts. IMO it should be 3 months or more. Check with your doctor.

I was allowed at 4 weeks once I was on 'regular food'. All surgeons have their own schedule. I was 2 weeks full liquids, then 2 weeks pureed/soft foods and at 4 weeks was allowed to have a regular diet. I never had a problem with them, and am now 2 1/2 months post op.

I was allowed nuts at five months only because I was not meeting my caloric needs. 1-2 oz per day. I usually can handle a handful of peanuts after my mid day Protein Shake.< /p>

Good question. I am a little over two months and occasionally eat pistachios. Haven't had any trouble. I think moderation is the key. But like everyone said above- every doctor is different with his recommendations.

I have already tried canned boiled peanuts that you can get at the grocery store. They are super soft right out of the shell. The down sides are that they are incredibly high in sodium and the whole can packs a huge number of calories.
