Citrus

[Shannnno 3]

When can citrus fruits be reintroduced to my diet? My sleeve was performed on 7/1/13.

fruit (other than applesauce that was allowed earlier) was added on my 6 week visit.

I've still not had any fruit since I don't have room after my Protein.< /p>

food plans vary so vastly from program to program. What did the materials from your nutritionist or surgeon say?

For me I could introduce citrus and pineapple week 7... Citrus and seeds were the LAST things I was allowed.. I was allowed a big hunk of beef before I was allowed citrus!

I too was at week 6.... but used it to mix in drinks.... and just a tiny amount.

I can't find anything to specifically give me a date for adding citrus only to avoid it due to the potential of ulcers from the acidity. I can't wait to have smoothies with real fruit and Protein Powder so I was just curious.

Gotta love some of our instructions! Like mine...it says "avoid nuts" there's no point at which is says I can have nuts- it seems to expect me to avoid them forever!

However...I could have citrus fruits without the membrane at 4 to 6 weeks, I guess that means I can have the membrane after 6 weeks.

the only fruit I have had so far is banana.< /p>
