I didn't try it then, but I remember reading on Bariatric Pal that it caused problems because it was so fibrous. You could try a tiny amount and increase it gradually to see how it goes.

its also full of sugar which in turn you'll just crave more. I understand the quenching thirst with fruit an believe me I LUV WM! its one of them fruits I used to eat on thruout the summer months! not any more..to much sugar . its also is fibourus. that an pineapple is to fibrous. stringy. have you got a printed protocol to go by given to you by your surgeon? call your nurse? everyones protocol I no is differant but the Fiber issue is still the same with all sleeves.

Are there any fruits you are able to eat?

I've been told to stay away from anything with a peel, and also strawberries.
