I can eat fish easily, but I cannot tolerate chicken. Immediate hurl and I love chicken. Turkey has the same effect unless it is ground.

Try again later, you never know. Try different fish, too. Salmon is a bestie for me as is tilapia, but tuna or mahi sticks. It's weird!

No I've always done well with fish.. But if it wasn't sitting well. I'd not try it again for a while longer then when trying it again eat an ounce only and see if it sits any better next time.

At a month+ my stomach was still pretty persnickety...

Okay. Thanks...it's definitely not something I wanna try again right now...I was on the phone with the hubby and he could hear the air just coming up my esophagus :(

Hope it feels better soon :(

Maybe you took a piece that was too big. I do that sometimes, talking and forget that I can't eat as fast as I used to. I've started to love fish since I've been sleeved. Wait a while, then give it another chance. It's great Protein for us.

We too eat a lot of fish now. But all my food goes down better if it is moist and has a bit of sauce mixed or on the side. Doesn't take much, just a half spoon on salads, a small dollop of quacks ole, a little Greek yogurt--all of these help us a lot. My husband had a horrible reaction to the chicken dry last night. Today I mixed it with a little Greek yogurt dip and he was just fine.

So that might help as well when you try it the next time.

I cooked it in a pan with a lil seasoning and a lil water...just to make sure it was moist...idk...and it's frustrating

Definitely give it a few weeks and try again - your stomach is still the boss of you this early in the game. (Mine's the boss of me forever, I'm beginning to think!)

Hah!! I think I agree with you there!! It's insane the foods I used to eat that I cannot tolerate now. Oh well, it'll be worth it in the end (I HOPE)!!!
