Eating nuts after surgery



Recommended Posts

Is it okay to eat nuts post op? I’ve transitioned to everything else fine, but I didn’t want to try nuts until I heard from you all..

How far post op are you? What op did you have?

I'm eating almonds at 7 weeks post-op, been eating them since transitioning to solid foods. Having no problems.

My surgeon has fish and nuts in the same stage (4). I’ve spent 2-5 days on each stage as instructed. I’m 3 weeks post op and will be trying nuts this week. My requirements are a lot different than most though from what I’ve read. If you are questioning you can always call your surgeon.

I eat nuts fine but not often because they have a lot of calories and are something I've overeaten in the past.

We stayed at Secrets Capri Riviera Cancun (long name - lol). It was fantastic!! And the room even had a scale which I loved having! I weigh myself every day (I KNOW you aren’t supposed to but I do) so being able to do that while I was away was great for me! Enjoy your trip! Where are I staying??

I always carry a bag of almonds with me as long as I only take a small handful. I can’t eat to many and I sometimes can feel them going down, otherwise I’ve done ok with them. I didn’t start eating then till about 2 months post op.

Just started nuts and I'm almost 2 months post op. I haven't had any problems with them and it's been great.

I was told at my one month appointment that I could eat them. I eat them regularly but only a few at a time or a tummy ache.

I eat a 1/4 cup of mixed nuts daily as part of my mid day snack. I started after six months post surgery. No problems so far.

      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.
