I'm not even 2 weeks out so I'm not thinking right now, but WHEN is a lettuce salad ok to try?

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.

itll be at least 6 weeks if i remember correctly. and I still cannot tolerate lettuce.

Raw spinach works better for me. I don't do salads often, after getting in protein there just

isn't a whole lotta room left over.

I was thinking Chef salad type, w/ the chicken and cheese and egg :) ALL protein but I do like a little lettuce now and then. BUT no more pouring on the dressing, I'll be a "dipper" now LOL and use fat free dressing :) I GOT THIS.

I'm not allowed raw veggies for 3 months.  Wilted lettuce anyone? No? Okay 😉

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.
