Fruits?

[cornhusker 115]

One month post op. Down 35 since surgery. I've had a pretty easy recovery. No issues. Started working out last week at 4 weeks post op. My doc had my on soft solids a week after surgery...think it was the fact that I felt good and he wanted the Protein intake. Anyway, I'm now told I can eat some fruits and vegetables. My question is, at my point in time post op, what kind of fruits do you guys suggest? I'm looking to keep the sugars and carbs down of course. Thanks.

Until I got to be about 6-7 weeks post op I ate bananas with a little Peanut Butter and some pineapple that I blended in my Ninja. I didn't worry too much about the carb count then I just wanted to eat a fruit that I could tolerate and keep down. I stopped the pineapple because I found it too sweet.

Now 4 months post op, I do watch my carbs pretty closely and have switched to just eating berries as my fruit. Strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, etc. I try to have a few berries at Breakfast and lunch.

Eventually I'll start incorporating more fruits into my diet. Right or wrong, this is what I do.

Best of luck!
