Chicken is still my Kryptonite!



Recommended Posts

Tonight I made my husband some baked chicken tenders. They looked pretty good and I haven't got sick in quite a while so I took a little bite. Just ONE LITTLE BITE! Now I'm percolating like a coffee pot (gurgling and burping) and very nauseous. I should have known better. Chicken and I just don't get along anymore...

And since turkey and chicken are cousins, guess what I'm not having on Thanksgiving? Lol

chicken has to be moist for me to be able to eat it without the oh sh*t feeling. It also took me several months before I could eat it. Don't count it off your list forever.

I'm five months out. I'm not counting it out forever but I think I'll wait till after the holidays to try again. The next two months are too busy to deal w/feeling sick. :-)

I swear chicken is still the trickiest of all for me too! And they tell you how ground beef is difficult - but it was the first thing I could eat with ZERO problem. I can do pork chops easy - shrimp, sure - ham - gotcha - tuna - let's go - chicken, uh........

Now my friend - 2 years later still can't eat shrimp or ground beef and never had a problem with chicken. So go figure!

I know what you mean - chicken is hard for me too and so is tuna fish. I can do flounder, sea bass, tilapia, but no tuna. I am almost 7 weeks post op and still have to do mush. I am not looking forward to this week having to discontinue the Protein shakes for a regular meal and get all of my Protein from food. I don't think it is going to happen right away.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving....it's not all about the food.

Isn't it funny how we're all different. chicken and tuna are fine with my pouch. I've realised now though that it doesn't like Cereal anymore, too many carbs perhaps.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
