Slight Food Brag

So I am on the tail end of week 12 post op coming up to my 13th week and today I managed to eat 2 bites of steak! (about 1 tablespoon)

I brag because food has been hard for me everything other than fish and some turkey mince has killed me and made me sick!

Mum made everyone steak for dinner and I thought ok try a bite see how it goes….

It was good it feels a little heavy but thank the lord no puking and bad bad pain like when I tried beef casserole 3 weeks ago!

Not that I will be eating steak everyday but just a little smile on my face that maybe finally I am at the stage where I can start reintroducing meat into my diet and not just be eating fish because its all I could handle!

So I say woop woo! lol

hope this is an ok place for this post!

That’s sucks!

I was a massive steak fan before the op not fancy sauced up steak just how it comes meaty steak but everything was killer even chicken it wasn’t as hard but 1oz of chicken even takes me about 3 hours to eat!

When I tried minced lamb (don’t like roast lamb or anything its too fatty for me) pork and beef it all was so painful and I puked 1min later then felt the after waves of pain for a couple of hours so I just didn’t try to eat red meats again till just now!

Maybe it’s the cut of beef or how its cooked?

Hopefully you will get to grips on beef!

Thanks to the other 2 it’s strange the things that make you go haha yes now lol

I managed to eat 2 bites of steak!

Went out to dinner - 3rd time in 8 months don't llike to go out anymore cuz i question myself with portions. :mellow:

I had little bit of steak too, rest went home. steak was way to heavy for me.

I do stop when full, but i just rather not go out for meals - what a switch from before

save so much money, i could probably buy my own restaurent :D

I’ve not been out to eat at all yet no clue how that will work when I finally do!

We also don’t really have the take home thing here in the uk its pretty much if you don’t eat it its binned, so eating out and picking steak is so not ever on my menu again lol

Upside to taking home steak if you have a dog they are one happy pet! lol

Oh, you are so lucky. I am 9 months out and steak is really tough for me. Out judy sits like a rock in my sleeve. :-( I take small bites when my husband eats then though, just can't tolerate too much.
