I eat most everything with my lovely new permanant ileo - including salads, beans, even nuts. I do take skins off fresh fruits and tough skins off certain vegetables - like cucumbers. Pretty much the only things I don't eat are mushrooms and corn. Sherry I suggest you adding things in very slowly and concentrate on chewing slowly and throughly when trying the new items.
good luck.

I can eat just about everything. I chew it well. Plus always keep grape juice on hand if I have blockage.

Thank you Liz and Winnie. I was so upset I would have to give up on even more food than when I had a jpouch. You gave me great news and hope!

I have only had my end ileo about 1.5 months and haven't had any problems eating anything. I chew foods well. What comes out seems well digested. With my J pouch I never had blockage issues but certain foods increased frequency, butt burn etc. and certain foods helped. My diet was restricted. That is the joy of the bag, even if it is loose or acidic it doesn't matter, its "in the bag."
