 Hi Group,
I am 3 weeks post-op and on soft/puree diet.  Right now i can't have rough vegetables only cooked.
Any idea when I can start to add lettuce to my food intake.  I would love to eat a grilled chicken salad?

Hi LaVonda,
I so remember craving salad. That was one of the first things I wanted to eat. Every Dr has a different eating plan. Check with your nutritionist. I think I had a very small amount of lettuce with my chicken at about the 3rd or 4th month out from RNY. My nutritionist really stressed the eating of protein first then when I get all my protein in then I can move on to veggies etc...
Hang in there, you will soon be eating salad in small amounts.
Hugs~
Annie
