I was told I would never be able to eat hard breads or salads ever again. Anyone else ever told this after a wrap? Thanks!

Welcome to Healing Well. That information is totally false. In fact hard breads are easier to est than soft breads. In the early stages soft bread and whole meats should be avoided and I can see lettuce being a problem early on. After a couple months you should be able to eat most anything as long as youi take your time ad chew very well.

I just had my last redo on Aug. 24th and I eat anything I want to.

Take care,
Bill

I am almost a year (April 1) and I can eat most anything I want. Beef still doesn't agree with me but, I think that is just something I am going to have to deal with. Soft soft bread is hard to handle for me but, garlic bread toasted is ok and so is bakery bread such as sour dough or fresh baked Italian. stuff like that doesn't bother me at all. I haven't tried salad but only because I am a big chicken.. I always had issues with salad so I am afraid to try.. anyway.. I am not suffering from lack of any food...
Let your body tell you what to eat and what not to.. believe me it will let you know if you should or shouldn't eat it...

Reach for the sunshine.. Rainbows will follow..

Can you even eat chocolate and soda after all healing is done.

I actually could not stand having the Kit Kat in my house and broke off a piece the other day. I let it melt in my mouth and I did just fine. I am not feeling great today. Lots of discomfort in my throat and esophagus. Still, for two weeks post op- the fact I going back to grad school tonight is pretty amazing.

I find salad is determined mostly by what dressing i put on it. I can't tolerate anything oily but ranch style does not bother me usually.

Hi apples, and welcome to the forum.

Whatever you tolerated pre-op should be tolerable post-op. If you had food intolerances before, they probably won't change either.

Keep a diary of what you eat and drink, also meds. Write down the times and whether you have reactions. I find a daily calendar with fairly large pages helpful.
