I FINALLY did it!!

Ate a raw peach, that is...heheheee!!! I am just over 16 mos post-op and can eat almost anything(in moderation, of course). However, I have feared the sugars in most fruit and have avoided them all, for the most part. I would rinse off carb-clever fruits and have little bits of that or I could add some sliced bananas or a sliced strawberry to my meal, but I would have rather put my head in a hungry lion's mouth before eating raw fruit. I LOVED fruit prior to surgery and have been psyching myself up for this moment for over a year. I planned this peach so that I could become ill by myself(if it happened) and have no "Should you REALLY have had that?" comments lobbed at me. Luckily, I feel great and am planning on another peach soon. YAYYYYYYYYYY!!!! Julie

Thats great Julie! I love fruit too! Enjoy! Tracy B 328/150 5'9"

Our NUT tells us to have 2 servings of fruits each day. The one thing that I notice is that fresh fruit gives me gas like nothing else!! I have to eat it at home when I know the only one suffering will be the DH. LOL!!! Becky
