Red meat consumption

Hi all I am just closing in on my 4th month post op and I direly miss red meat, but I’m a little shaky and afraid to eat it. When were you guys okay with eating red meat?

    I have beef and pork rarely because I have to crave them to eat them. They seem to sit well most of the time but I have “off” days with foods every once in a while. Chicken has been my biggest

I never had a problem with red meat. It was chicken that got me (but now that's fine too). Try it soft, like a meatball, and see how you do!

I had red meat the first week I was on regular foods sooooo.... like week 6? I would suggest watching the texture. If you like it well done, but might be problematic. I had a medium-rare filet and it was AMAZING.

Regular foods were at 4 weeks for me. I think I waited like 3 days into the 4th week? lol

I made a beef stew....it was so damn delicious! I figured I might have an issue so I thought I would start with something softer...and it went well! I had roast beef week 5 and didn't have an issue. Truthfully...the only thing that has bothered me was scrambled eggs. The first time I tried it was fine....but it just felt weird for about 15 min after. Had them this am and I don't have any issues

Like those above, red meat has always been fine for me. I love a good steak! (Just a much smaller serving now). My only meat I can’t eat much of is pork. It’s so dense, I can only get in about 2 oz before I get my full signals.
No issues with red meat, chicken or pork here. Good luck

Chicken has been my biggest issue after my RNY revision but I’m slowly able to eat it now that I’m 9 months out from it.
