Strawberries? PP help!

 Ok, so I bought a strawberry flavored protein powder not knowing that it has what looks like strawberry seeds in it. It tastes pretty good, but I got worried half way though that the seeds where a no-no and I dumped it and made myself a vanilla. I looked over my paperwork and it does not mention strawberries anywhere, so I figured I would toss it out there for you guys to see if anyone got any orders from their docs about them.

I am almost six weeks out!

 My PA (physician's assistant) told me they would be fine.  That being said....I'm pretty disappointed with the information I've gotten from her.  She told me to go ahead and eat eggs at one week out!  Yeah... BIG mistake!  So.... I've been following as closely as I can the advise of Frisco and other Cringle patients.
So.......  My suggestion would be to wait until your on regular foods before you do seeds.  ...Unless you have a Vitamix which pulverizes the seeds.  I'm sure others will weigh in on what they've been told.  Good luck!

Take care.

 Thanks guys! I will be six weeks out and on normal food on Monday, so I think I am just going to hold off for another week or two and then use it!

My surgeon cleared me for strawberries, most raw veggies, and begin solids at 4 weeks out. I specifically asked about strawberries and cherry tomatoes (also with small seeds) because I grow them in my garden and was DYING to have them.
