What about seeds after surgery?



Recommended Posts

I haven’t had surgery yet but was asked if I would be able to eat berries or if they will be off limits because of the seeds.

Are berries off limits?

You should be able to eat berries. I had pumpkin seeds on Halloween.

I have done well with seeds. pumpkin and sunflower, shelled. Chew them well.

I had zero fruit for the first three months. Our nutritionist calls them sugar bombs. No sugar or bread cerealy things at all. And now three months later I hate the taste of sweet things. So I’m glad I stopped eating fruit. Now I will eat ONE bite of fruit a day, usually just a taste when I fix fruit for a child. I don’t really want sweet things any more. I will add a small amount of fruit in to my diet next summer if I am ready for maintenance.

That’s good to know. I love fruit but like any good relationship, if it’s not two sided (and if it will hurt me, it’s only one sided) I’ll have to break up with my fruit. I’m really hoping for a shift in taste buds after surgery. That would be delightful. :)

I have no issues with seeds or fruit to be honest. I don't eat a lot of fruit but I do on occasion and it hasn't been an issue for me personally.
