chicken or beef???

[housecatgirl 0]

Which goes down easier for you chicken or beef?:confused: I actually haven't tried beef yet but I've been reading some complaints about chicken lately.:phanvan I am afraid to try beef since I am having such a hard time with chicken. If I take more than 2 bites within 10 minutes it's surely a PB. I am trying to eat more Protein but I am sick and tired of this constant golf ball.:angry I already went for an unfill last week so I would really like to work with the restriction I have right now.

I haven't tried beef (other than ground) yet either. chicken is tough sometimes. I have to have it swimming in some kind of sauce in order to get it down. Then at that point, it's not exactly low fat so I've been really eating a lot of seafood and eggs. I've become the omlette queen!!!! LOL!!:hungry:

What kind of chicken are you eating Laura? I know sometimes the breast can be dry and harder to swallow. I have been able to eat both chicken and beef. I even had carne asada last Sunday. I'm only tight in the morning, so no steak and eggs for me! ha! But, by evening I can eat most anything.

socalgal3, sounds like you have perfect restriction. I wouldn't mind at all if I was only tight in the morning. Last night I was able to get maybe 1/2 (or close to it) shredded chicken taco down. Tonight I don't think I could handle a cup of yogurt. I have the golf ball with liquid.< /p>

chicken is definetly harder to eat always gets stuck actually beef is hard to can only eat a little at a time.

for me chicken is definitely harder to eat. Slap a big ol steak on my plate any day.... no problems. chicken, it is a hit or miss for me. (all of my pb's have been on chicken...).

I do great with beef and chicken/turkey that is ground....sloppy joes, bbq, taco meat, meat loaf, etc. Other kinds of chicken....I just never know.

Tonight for the first time I tried steak....it went down just fine - and it stayed down! Hooray!! Thick, medium rare sirloin cooked on a grill.

Gayle, I read your post and am so jealous! I want to eat beef...lol...chicken with no-fat jalepeno ranch dressing works well for me...

I actually do much better with beef than I do chicken. But, with beef I have the choice of choosing the better cut, which I prefer the filet mignon. It is so tender it practically melts in my mouth and goes down without any problems at all.

I wake up in a new world everyday. Sometimes chicken does better, and sometimes beef. My band likes to keep me guessing.

I have pb'd more than once on chicken, but have had no trouble with beef; I wonder if I'm more careful with beef because I think it'll be more troublesome? In any case, my bands pretty fickle so it's always a crap shoot no matter what I eat. I have had good luck with shaved chicken breast from Walmart's deli-I don't eat bread, just the chicken.:hungry:

They both go down the same for me. I'm lucky. I don't have to slather them with too much sauce, either. I've had some pretty dry chicken breast and haven't had as much as a hiccup.

I am getting pretty grossed out with ground beef though. All that chewing, I can actually pick out the fat and grissle. YUCK! I've been doing everything I can to convince DH to try some other dishes so that I can avoid the ground beef.

Carlene, Your post hit home (for alot of us I am sure)! One day I feel too tight and then bam I can eat the next day. Although, even when I can eat it's only a few bites. Oh well, I am losing weight!
