Not necessarily anything wrong with that... plants have Protein too!

Why is my bypass so different I can have taco shells, well tortilla chips and salsa. it's in my diet. I'm 7weeks out I just have trouble with meats though if I can't stomach tacos I can't eat meat period I don't like chicken,fish,or pork I'm damn near a vegetarian.

I feel the same way..i cant eat any meat as of right now..i got alot of vegetarian food like veggie patties and Chik patties and my stomach tolerates it 100%..soo i think I've came to a horrid conclusion that for now...i have to be a Vegetarian ????

I found experimentation to be the best thing. An egg mixes well with tuna and makes a nice patty with a little olive oil. Sprinkle some salt on it and u have a crispy tuna patty - tons of Protein too.

Maybe some crab meat? Shrimp sautéed in a little butter and seasoned well? Salmon patties? chicken salad?

It's not the meat that won't sit well, it's the DRY meat.

Add some moisture with butter, gravy, etc. make it more medium than well done.

The point behind no corn or enriched flower the first couple months in the more successful programs is because our bodies NEED protein and theirs ZERO need for enriched flour and corn. Some of these programs around are nothing more than herding fat people thru a turnstile and knowing they will be back for revisions. Do some research. Don't eat enriched flour or corn. Don't drink alcohol, etc etc.

Make smart decisions.

I had gastric bypass last October and am still struggling with eating meat. I'm getting very frustrated. I'm going to make some turkey chili using ground turkey, Beans, chicken broth and canned tomatoes. Last time I tried this it was rough as heck. This time I'm going to blend the chili before I add the beans and see if that works. I can't stand fish. Tried to eat some tuna last week and promptly threw up the three tiny bites I got down. The chili recipe is James Marusek's. He also has a recipe for an egg drop Soup. He has lost all of his weight and has maintained for a long time. Do a search for him. He is very smart and very generously shares his information and experience. I've also had advice about using a crock pot or other slow cooker for cooking meats. Keeps the moisture in and makes the meat very tender. I'm going to google recipes for that too. I'll let you know when I come up with something good.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
