I was wondering how many of you eat salads and do not have any problems? I am so hungy for one and had my surgery in April. Do you think that it is safe?

I had my surgery in May and I eat salad all the time. My doctor gave me the ok for it 2 months after surgery. Maybe just call your doc and make sure!

I had my surgery in July and I eat it a lot. I love salad so I don't see why it would be a problem.

I think most of us eat salads. I try not to eat much iceberg lettuce simply because it has pretty much zero nutrition. But darker lettuces, spinach, etc. are healthy/nutritious and tasty. Like everything, chew well and you should be fine!

I had surgery the end of May and I eat salad too. I agree with eating darker greens though. I love adding spinach to my salads. My favorite is a spinach mix with strawberries, apple pieces, a couple nuts, and some raspberry vinigrette.

I miss my salads. I love and even crave a salad, but my band will not tolerate it. I am hoping when I reach my goal and loosen my band a small amount that I can eat it again. I can only hope.. It has been a year since I have had one.

I had my surgery a year ago and I pretty much each a salad every day for lunch. It's one of my favorites to eat and since work provides us with lunch, I always pick the salads. I also tend to do the dark greens or weeds as most people call them To be safe ask your Dr

My doctor said try to avoid salads cause its empty space because the protien needs to be eaten first and not to fill up ont the lettuce before the Protein. But I agree with the other posters to stick with the darker greens. Try to eat the protein first and the veggies and last the lettuce or darker greens

I have always just thought salads were out. Now I think that I will try a little.

I've had no problems eating salads. I've so far had no food intolerances (knock on wood) but I always chew very very well. I've had a few bites of salad because I love it but I just make sure I get my Protein in for the day.
