salad is a super duper easy, totally safe, eat it in public with no fear kind of food to me. Any kind of salad except Pasta salad.

I love love love a caesar salad, I make a great low fat one at home, we often have that for an easy night's dinner, although it takes more time to make than a lot of other meals, lol.

Oh man! I also craved salads... can't wait until next weekk when I can go on real food.< /p>

I can't eat alot of salads, comes back up quickly no matter how much I chew.

Olive Garden and Ceasars work well for me. I'm thinking it's all that slimy dressing that helps it slide down.

Hey redfox, I was banded by Dr. Zapata too, on Oct. 22, so I was probably there the week after you!

I just tried a little bit of shredded iceberg lettuce and salad dressing last night and did fine, so I had a chopped salad at lunch with a coworker today ... my first post-banded meal with anyone other than my husband! No problems, but that might change after a fill. I don't feel like I have any restriction right now.

I've not had any problem with salads, either. But, don't eat them as often as I'd like because the Protein gets first call and after that, there's usually some lovely broccoli or something else I like better.

I had some trouble with lettuce at first, but now I eat salads often. I just chop everything up real small. Sometimes I will put everything but the lettuce on a few pulses of a food processor to get it done quick. After I put on the dressing, I cut everything up to mix it well.

I didn't eat any salad until I was 4 wks out. I have eaten them almost every day since then. I love salads!
