Fruit

How long before fruit is ok? I LOVE fresh fruit and vegetables like could eat them all day and never need sweets or soda. I'm 2 days post op and an scheduled to start "regular food" on August 7th and just wondering if fruit is something easily tolerated or are we saying goodbye to it? Seems a shame if we are being as fruit is such a powerful source of nutrients!!! I will of course ask my doc but just wanted a reason for conversation as well.

I've been eating a handful or raw cherries every day this week for my dessert and have had no problems with digestion or anything. I haven't tried any raw veggies yet.

When I started mushy foods we could have canned fruit. I have had watermelon, cantelope and a peach so far. But I'm eating regular food now. Haven't tried raw veggies yet.
