Can I eat grape tomatoes? Even though they have little seeds? I'm 2 months out now.
I eat strawberries in my smoothies...even tinier "seeds". I don't want to get hurt lol

It's crazy how many differing opinons from docs and nuts out there on seeds. I can tell you that I have been eating tomatoes and cucumbers since 4 weeks out and have zero problems - no pain, no digestive issues. Cucumbers are the best for me, because they're a slider - they simply do not fill me up and are very refreshing.

There is no evidence that small seeds will cause any kind of problem... but some surgeons tell patients to avoid them.

I don't understand how seeds could hurt anything, especially tomato and cucumber seeds. Heck, even an accidental watermelon seed shouldn't be a problem. Now if you swallow a peach pit or avocado seed (pretty much impossible!) you'd be in trouble.
