Problem digesting meat?



Recommended Posts

I'm 6 weeks post op and have just started eating some soft meats. This is making me very sick and I've even experienced the dumping syndrome. Has anyone had this problem with meats? Any suggestions?

What meats are you eating? Make sure they're low fat - 93/7 beef or ground turkey. No more fat than that really.

Yeah, as @lvidacovich said, the only time I had issues with meat was when it was too fatty.

Sorry you're dealing with that.

Now that I'm almost 8 months post bypass I can eat all meat but beef in ANY form is nasty now because I can taste the "blood" no matter how it's cooked, and steak was one of my favorite foods.

Way to early for solid meats - I can barely eat a small slices of skirt steak, beat to hell and tender. I agree with above if it has white on it - Trim it all off - The fat is most likely tearing you up plus the texture,

At that point ground turkey, pork or fish or shellfish - Hamburger may be a little to fatty and rough that early

**I just got back from lunch and ordered civeche, No way i was doing a meat or chicken

I do very lean chicken, ground turkey or fish. I will try some super lean ground beef on occasion but I'm not a huge fan of red meat. I'm guessing the meats your eating are too fatty. Try something leaner.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
