lettuce salad?
Every program is different, so check with your nutritionist. I am 6 weeks out and I just got the okay today to eat salad. I have not tried it yet, so can't say if it will work for me at this point, but I am looking forward to trying.

I'm in the same boat, no raw veggies, no apples, no salad.
I was about 3 months out before I got a salad ok...and frankly really only started eating salad about 5 months out...it used allot of space when I was having trouble getting all the protein in and I had trouble chewing it to the right consistency......tomatoes are a different story as I found that it helped the protein down...( like chicken or hard boiled eggs)
now I will eat a little lettuce with lemon or a spritz of balsamic vinegar after I eat some of the protein...sometimes I wrap the protein in a little lettuce...like tuna with Greek yogurt and tomatoes and lettuce wrap....
Crunch is hard early out!

I was told to wait 6-8 weeks for raw salad. I am so happy salad doesn't bother me. By 3 months I was good. Salad or soup are my go-to choices when I eat out.
