I'm not a C'er, but I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents.
Last week, I was finally able to eat a small salad again. I was pretty excited about that. I ate a lot of bread first, let me tell you. That was also my first salad in about a year.
You might be able to eat salad again, but you have to give your body time to heal. It might take a lot longer than a few months. I can't guarantee anything, of course, I'm just saying don't give up yet. At the 3-month mark, I could still barely eat cooked carrots (which are soluble), much less any insolubles, so you're already ahead of where I was!
Random trivia: Did you know that carrots are better for you if they're cooked? There's apparently some nutrients that the body can't get to when they're raw. So... cooked vegetables aren't *always* a bad thing. What I've been doing a lot lately is cooking vegetables crisp-tender and then eating them cold with safe salad dressing. Tasty!
