TinyTink 268 Posted November 15, 2015 I love pickles. Love them! To me they are not a garnish but a side dish. I know that my tastes may change after surgery but where exactly do my beloved pickles come in? They are one of my favorite grabs when I want something crunchy or briney or puckery. I will also tuck a sandwich slice into a low carb tortilla with some turkey and vege cream cheese. Who is still loving pickles and when could you tolerate them? Thanks so much!!

lorri716 256 Posted November 15, 2015 I love pickles too. I ate my first ones today. I'm 2 1/2 months out and I did just fine w them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joz31 90 Posted November 15, 2015 I love them as a great low carb snack with few calories. I just be sure to do the Kosher dill not the sweet ones. They also make a hot and spicy that's delicious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauraellen80 855 Posted November 15, 2015 I started having 2-3 baby dills with my lunch at a couple months out. Still love 'em, no problems with 'em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperDave 1,115 Posted November 15, 2015 Pickles are great! I started eating them again at the soft food stage, whenever that was, (or is for you). Pickles and cheese are one of my go to Snacks. Super low carb and they go together great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sophie74656 1,572 Posted November 15, 2015 I have a pickle sometimes when I get some head hunger going, it satisfies a lot of my cravings and no calories. I just make sure to have some extra Water to counter the sodium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack 855 Posted November 15, 2015 "Who is still loving pickles and when could you tolerate them?" it was a couple years before my actual desire for pickels returned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chanti_ 27 Posted November 15, 2015 Mmmmm.. garlic dills, I started at 5 weeks dicing them up to add to chicken salad, or tuna... Now I just crunch one on it's own as a snack, I also have them in a deli meat roll up with cheese. They taste just as wonderful as before... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted November 15, 2015 I love them, too. I just can't eat as many as I used to at once. Once you are cleared for crunchier foods they should be ok. Before that you might be able to do the soft centers during your soft phase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashlegal 525 Posted November 15, 2015 I had my first pickle last week. It was awesome! I have decided to start making my own and just finished some about two hours ago. I don't know if I can hold off popping them open! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisee68 2,493 Posted November 15, 2015 Yep me too. Right after surgery I even drank Pickle Juice to help with hydration because I wasn't always drinking enough. They are high is salt so you have to watch that and you have to get Protein in but otherwise I don't see why you can't have them - eventually anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyTink 268 Posted November 15, 2015 Phew! I'm very much relieved that I can still enjoy my pickles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
