I've had my band for a little over 2 years and no matter how many times I've tried to eat hamburger meat It nevers agrees with me.....I've tried various different times, chewing, cutting, all of the above and it's never a good thing....which my doctor told me not to eat red-meats because they don't digest good....however I've been able to eat steak like jack said but NO hamburger meat.....sorry I have no solution it's out of the question for me...and many other people I know that has had the band....

Im like Jack - no problems with hamburger, but extreme caution is used when eating steak.

Have you tried eating your hamburger meat with lots of ketchup?

This may help.

Might it depend how you eat it. We only really eat in in bolognaise sauce or chilli.

Thanks for your advise. I guess that I am not going to be able to eat hamburger meat. It is not the end of the world I guess. Thanks again for your advise.

I haven't had a problem w/it but I don't eat it often. I usually cook it down and use the fat free gravy in it to "soup" it up. My FI will eat that with bread, and I'll spread it over squash or brussel sprouts..

I don't have any problem with it, but I do always cook it with something. I fry the meat, drain off all grease then cook it with rotel or ranch style Beans or spaghetti sauce. It Soups it up and there hasn't been any problems.

Leighann,

The leaner the beef, the harder it is to eat because it is dryer unless lubed to death. I can eat chili, but usually substitute beef for lean turkey which for some reason is easier for me to eat. I really dont miss hamburgers, although when I was unfilled last year, I hit Fuddruckers and had a 5 oz burger loaded and it was so gooood... I used to be Wimpie before banding.... I 'll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today......LOL

I don't have any problems eating hamburger. I fix it up just like I would with the bun, only use lettuce leaves for the bun. It takes my cravings away for the regular burger.

Betty - I never thought of using lettuce leaves for the bun. Thats a great idea!!!

You might want to try a soy burger. I bought a box and seasoned the meat and they were good.
