Kumbaice 44 Posted December 23, 2016 Just wondering how you did first time with uncooked veggies and salads ? I can have them but am afraid to try them Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waler 330 Posted December 23, 2016 personally I was fine, but everyone is different. Take it slow and your body will tell you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laceemouse 631 Posted December 23, 2016 I was cleared to try anything at 5 weeks out. I took it slow but by about 7 weeks I was able to try small amounts of most things, including most fruits and veggies. Chew well and eat slowly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen_Bee 37 Posted December 23, 2016 Ditto. I started with 3 small bites of Caesar salad at about 6 weeks postop, and have worked my way to a few more bites. No problems. I haven't actually sat down and eaten a raw carrot yet, but I probably could if I had a craving for one. Start small and see how it feels. Easier to recover from a bite or two if things go wrong. Good luck! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jamieson 40 Posted December 24, 2016 I did not have any problem. I love munching on some raw carrots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
