Some don’t like the acidity in fruit same with fruit juice I was told no citrus fruits no skins for the first few weeks and not to have fruit juice without mixing it with 2 parts Water to dilute it.
In my mushy stage I stewed fruit easy to do just cook it down with a little Water in its own juice or you can add a little apple juice for sweetness and if you really really have to you can add a little sugar/sweetener for added sweetness but you really shouldn’t need to your stewing fruit not making jam lol

I love fruit. My VSG was in May and that first summer only fruit I tolerated well was melon, unsweetened applesauce and bananas. I could eat a couple of berries in a smoothie, but not straight. I love peaches, nectarines, and plums, but they all made me feel sick. By the time fall rolled around, I could eat a little fresh apple, orange, or grapes. Everyone's stomach is different and every program is different.

Many people think fruits have to many carbs, but I love my fruit and it's a great snack for me.

My doctor told me I could have fruits at 5 weeks out (soft stage). i just need to peel the skin off apples etc. I love being able to eat fruits. I missed them. My body still cant tolerate applesauce.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
