I am one week away from Stage 3 and I am already fantasizing about the food I can eat.  One of my favorite things to eat in the summer is a fresh corn, tomato, and green bean salad.  Please tell me I can eat a very small version of this when I start on Stage 3!

You need to check with your NUT. Many are not allowed raw veggies until further out. In my case, it was 3 months. And corn....is a long term no for me per my NUT.

Plus none of these are protein.....so if you start your soft phase (I assume that's your phase 3) focusing on protein you'll be lucky to get in maybe a tablespoon maximum.

Not trying to be negative....there's always next summer or freeze some of it for the winter months.

I was cleared to eat anything at 6 weeks.  Ask your nutritionist or surgeon.  Make sure you chew your food well no matter what you eat.
