How long after RNY were you able to eats a green salad? I'm only at 5 weeks but am looking forward to the day when I can have that much Fiber. I LOVE salads and miss them!!

For some reason salads scared me... my concentration was getting my Protein in FIRST. My surgeon was big on protein first. I tried salad about 4-5 months post op and it did not go down very well. I also loved my salads and now I'm just not into them, my taste buds have changed BIG TIME !!!

I love eating salads. However the firs few times I noticed that creamier Salad Dressing made me sick.

I think I was around 6 weeks when I was allowed to start, maybe 8. They have been a regular part of my diet since that point. No problems at all, info use a fat free dressing and typically have turkey, cheese, and boiled egg whites on them.

I started having salad at 7 weeks once I was moved to regular diet. I do put mozzarella cheese and chopped hard boiled egg on top and eat that first to make sure I get my Protein in. I do find that I can eat quite a bit of salad (more than other foods), must be the consistency. I usually have Italian or balsamic dressing so I haven't tried any creamy dressings yet.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
