Tuna Or Red Meat Problems

[GabbyEstrada 89]

Hey everyone!

I'm going on my 6th week and already eating a lil of everything but the two things I seem to have problems with are tuna n red meat. I know I have go chew really good n just a small amount but when I eat that I just feel like it gets stuck n won't go down.. Any one have issues? I try to eat it because of Protein but when I do it's very little n I feel it takes for ever to break it down.

I'm at about 5 weeks, I can eat tuna, but only as tuna salad with a lot of mayo. I haven't even attempted any red meat yet, I haven't gotten to that phase in my diet plan.

I'm 2 mos post op & can't tolerate ground beef at all. I've tried every preparation I can think of...in Soup, meatball with sauce, etc. Can't get it down...it just sticks! I eat a lot of fresh tuna -Ahi- seared on the outside & extremely rare inside. It goes down like butter with some ginger miso dressing that's.low cal, low sugar, low fat, low carbs.....delish & healthy & loaded with protein! Try it I hate canned tuna....haven't tried it post op. It's all trial & error so give yourself a couple more weeks & try them again. Don't rush it. Good luck
