Has anyone had Pili Nuts post op? If so, how long post op were you when you tried them and were they tolerated?

Never even heard of them. I’m curious to see what people say though.

I love them, but everyone in my family dislike them. They are more of a soft crunch nut vs. like a almond which is firm and a definite crunch. When I first tried them I thought yuck but as I continued eating them I was like oooohh I do like these lol. No one around me shares that opinion lol

Actually, any nut really. Im curious if anyone has started incorporating nuts back in their diet and at what phase? I love pecans, walnuts, pili nuts and almonds. The latter one helps me with Constipation lol. I buy these (Pili Nuts) from Amazon and they are not cheap thats for sure but I consider them a treat for myself once a month and I dont have to worry about anyone else eating them LOL

I waited until I was back on normal foods. A little while after soft foods. I honestly didn’t have any issues tolerating anything that was in my phase though. I probably could have advanced through the stages faster.

Never heard of them, I think you describe them as I would pumpkin seeds which I like.

I have not tried any nuts since surgery but plan too at some point, I may have to try these.

      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.
