Question

What foods?

my surgeon told me I could eat whatever I liked after my resection except for brassicas like cauli, cabage etc.

He was right on these but also wrong as I have since worked out that there are actaually a number of foods I don't tolerate post resection that were Ok before e.g. onion, garlic, apples, kidney beans, pears .....

Since I have adopted a FODMAP diet I seem a lot better - less pain and no major flares. Maybe you could get some advice from the hospital/surgeon that did the surgery?

Better safe than sorry :)

I have had two resections and my diet has never gone back to what it was before the surgeries. I stay on a low residue diet all the time and that works best for me. Its always easy to chew, easy to digest for me now. Not too much fruits and veggies I can eat now except for a few. No peels ever now either. Hope that helps.
