I'm at 6 weeks post-op and I've been eating nuts. My doctor said to try things and he didn't put any restrictions on it. I just chew, chew, chew and haven't had any problems.

I am almost 7 weeks and have been eating nuts, just make sure you don't "nibble" on them all day long.......LOL

I am just three days shy of being eight weeks out and I eat nuts quite frequently. My favorite type is cashews. I sometimes eat a handful as a meal and make sure that I don't snack on them all day. I have been able to tolerate nuts very well with no problems at all. Just make sure that you get plain nuts instead of honey roasted, etc. as the added sugar could cause a problem. Have fun experimenting. ~Kristy (lap rny 09/18/03 - 320/281/168)

If you want a high protein snack, try soy nuts! Just make sure you get the salted ones. Also macadamon(sp) nuts have more protein then peanuts! <br>Good luck!! <I>~~Wendy D, RNY 4/23/03, -117 lbs~~</I>
