Fruit
My instructions allow all fresh and canned fruits after 8 weeks. Whether, or not you feel comfortable would depend on if you are diabetic or not. I'm out 4 1/2 months and have to go easy on most fruits. I eat rolled oats with blueberries about every other day but strawberries are saved for putting a couple in yogurt once or twice a week. I try to split a banana with DH. 1/2 is plenty for me. You just have to go slow in the beginning.
I can eat any fruit.

I eat any fruit but use bananas as a pre or post exercise. Frozen berries are my number one though.

Berries are the only thing I can tolerate in larger quantities (up to 1 c). Apples, I can do about a quarter but a half sends me dumping, as did watermelon. Try combining your banana with PB and see if that moderates the sugar for you.

I'm 12 weeks out and I eat bananas. Ive added a few frozen slices to my shakes since the beginning.
The only fruit I have had problems with are apples I think because they are hard and I probably didnt chew well enough. Applesauce is fine.
I just had my first grapefruit the other day. I even had a little OJ this morning!
(my liver enzymes are high and it was suggested to add citrus)
