Fruits?

Are there any fruits ya'll can eat and not dump on? I dieing for a peach or cantelope? I'll make sure that it's very soft and mushy before i eat it! I'm having leg cramps(charlie horses,it's not a blood clot!) I know it's cause my potassium is low and I'm sceared of a banana, to sweet! And i sure don't want to have to take a potassium pill (giant) and I hear that the liquid is no picnic either!LOL DAWN

I have dumping sydrome but not on natural sugars. I have always been able to eat any fruit and it not bother me. I have even been able to drink juice since the beginning. But you give me something with too much real sugar in it and I get sick. THey make low carb orange juice and apple juice. I started out drinking that. Does juice have as much potassium as eating the fruit. I don't know about these things. Read on the nutrition information on the back of some of the low carb real fruit juice and see how much potassium is in there. I had leg cramps in the beginning too. Dehydration causes leg cramps too. I had them bad when I got dehydrated a few weeks after surgery. I had gotten sick with a sinus infection and the antibiotic made me sick and I couldn't keep anything down and ended up dehydrated and had to go to the ER. Boy, did my legs cramp. Good luck and I hope you get rid of those charlie horses. Melissa

I have eaten tons (well, tons is relative!) of cantelope, watermelon, grapes, strawberries, oranges, apples, peaches, etc with NO ill effect! Go get you a good cantelope and EAT! It will make your tummy so very happy!!!! Smoochies Arlies PS it is the PROCESSED sugar that is the big problem....

Thanks Arlies, i've got one chillin now!!! DAWN

yea!!!!! That answer makes me very happy!!!! Cause we can ge****ermelon, melons and other fruits here year round..... I could just live on fruit or at least satisfy my sweet tooth!!!!!! Very large smiles!!!!!! Cheryl

I ate alot of fruits. Well, I mostly drank the juice out of the orange, chewed the juice out of the apples, and sucked the pineapple dry. I didnt want to swallow any peelings... It was mostly the taste and juice I wanted. I dont dump on natural sugars --only the processed sugars. Does this mean we can chew on a sugar cane for a snack??? A banana would probably be good for you right now. I would just be weary of the stringy fruits like PINEAPPLE and do any from a can.

Thanks christine, Glad to here there is an OJ out there that i can have, i don't really like regular hawiann punch(well i used to but there was always alittle something extra in it to make it better)It's too sweet , i'll try the light and see if i like that! DAWN

This isnt real sweet. Its sweet but not syrupy sweet. Earlier in my post I left out a word. My suggestion was to NOT buy the canned fruits. They are in syrup. You can see if they have those SF canned fruits. I have seen them. I dont know how they taste but you could put splenda on top of them!

Oh yea.. the orange juice I drink is Minute Maid Light. Its half the calories and half the sugar. Tastes like the real deal too. I wanted it right after surgery. Also, Glenda Rowell brought some real good Hawaiian Punch to the bash and it was very low in sugar. I bought some and am drinking on it. It might give ya a little flavor.

Was wondering if fruits are on your drs. approved list?
