I can handle about 1/2 cup of green salad.

I'm just happy I never have to try to impress someone by ordering a salad ever again, LOL. Never really liked the taste of lettuce and for the dressing calories I'd just as soon have chicken!

Morning.

I am 4 months out and still cannot eat a salad or tuna fish. I can, however, finally eat Mayonnaise.< /p>

Take your time and don't rush it. You have a new baby tummy. Would you have given a baby Peanut Butter this early?

Think that way.

Have a sparkling day

I LOVE salad. OMG I missed it so much. I was adding spinach to my smoothies on the full liquids stage. After 6 weeks I started adding it back into my diet. I now have small salads fairly regularly. I don't use dressing though. I have always been a olive oil and vinegar gal. I eat them with no problems.

Aww, I'm so sorry! For me, salad is on the safe list - I know I won't hurk it back up or have any issues. At least without dressing, or with vinaigrette or yogurt dressing. Everything else is sketchy.

      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.
