Question:
Corn on the cob -- problems? OK?

I am approaching 5 mo. post op. . .- 80 lbs open rny - and the sweet corn season is fast approaching northeaster Ohio. I have not had any corn since surgery. What are my chances with trying corn on the cob? Have you tried it? Bad reaction? No reaction? Don't know if it relative, but most meats give me a hard time. Thanks.    — Doris R.

I am eight months post op and have been having corn on the cob once in awhile for the last couple of months. I can't eat it with a meal because I wouldn't be able to eat anything else. I usually have an ear as a snack. I've had no problems, just make sure to chew really good.

I too have been eating corn on the cob. I love it! I had open RNY Jan. 11, have lost 92 # The other day I had 2 ears and all was o.k. Enjoy!
