Charleybear 0 Posted October 3, 2013 I am going 3 months post op. Are peanuts allowed in our diet, I had orders right after surgery that I could not eat nuts- was it because of the recent surgery or is it not allowed forever ? Peanuts are high in Protein and I like them. Help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottsGirl 106 Posted October 3, 2013 I've been eating them since the 6 week point. Just chew them very well - yum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arts137 1,811 Posted October 3, 2013 it's to ensure that peanut pieces don't irritate or get stuck in the healing stomach... I assume OK now, but chew chew chew!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ribearty 544 Posted October 3, 2013 I went to my pre- and post-op diet class this past Monday. I was told that I could start adding nuts to my diet at 3 month post-op, and chew, chew, chew. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny One 223 Posted October 3, 2013 Nuts are good. It's what helps me with my snacking urges & reaching my daily Protein goal. I started adding them to my diet at 5 mons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
