I had chicken on day 9 post op and did just fine. Make sure it is leg or thigh as both are moist and not as dry as breast and wing.

For a quick dinner I did one of those microwavable breasts in gravy (like Tyson or Hormel and yes I know they are terrible for you!) at 3-4 weeks and had no problems whatsoever. Just shredded it and kept it moist. I think a rotisserie chicken would go down well to because it is moist. I like shredding it - feels like you are eating more and it's easier to take smaller bites.

Good luck!

I just tried a small piece of chicken thigh and it went down. I'm just so use to chicken breast. Ughh. 2 1/2 months

For some reason I can't eat chicken. After trying several times...I just gave up :( It was moist but just doesn't work. Hope it works for you. Chicken was about the only meat I ate before the surgery so I'm being forced to try new things!

Chicken went down all right but sat heavy

I can't eat chicken. It was after 1 month I try it out. I did have a few bites from Boston market last week when I took my kids out with some gravy & it went down fine.

The only chicken I can eat is the rotisserie chicken from the deli at walmart. It seems most enough. Its the one thing I didnt think I would have such a problem with but chicken breast I cook for my family just dont work for me. It was about month 2 for me that I could tolerate the rotisserie kind.

Try cooking it in a slow cooker. The moister the better. I have a problem with canned tuna,

Try braising boneless skinless chicken thighs...moist, yummy, full of protein!

I haven't had any problem with chicken. I've even had a couple pieces of fried. #7wks out
