I have a feeling the answer to this question is going to break my heart, but are raw oysters out of the question with a k-pouch?

No. Chris ate them, just have to chew them not swallow them whole like i do with my j pouch!!!!!!!LOL
I would wait awhile if you are a newbie. Moderation is the key and patience helps too. You will get where you want to be.

thank you for the answer I wanted to hear. I think I am gonna put off trying them for a bit though. Glad to hear things are going well by you.

the pros and cons
I stay away from them...I've tried, but they are chewy suckers and I just get plain tired of trying to chew them to a pulp to avoid issues in the bathroom.

I do eat shrimp and sometimes lobster...scallops are if-y.
