Meat Issues?

[mendymayhem 52]

I'm just over four weeks out and I'm now eating a little chicken or beef. But let me tell you, it sits like a rock right below my breast bone! And if I eat a bite too much...yikes.

Beef is worse so I'm passing on that. And I'm beginning to recognize full. But I am really wanting to avoid meat at this point. That wouldn't concern me, but since my surgery I can not stand my protien shakes. So bizarre , because I have been using this product for years and loving it. Getting plenty of protien was never a concern.

Untill post surgery and now it tastes like metal in my mouth! I've added fruit, cocoa, sf syrups.....still yuck. I fear I will lose my hair if this keeps up. And, of course I have no energy, and weight loss has stalled. The stall doesn't concern me, I know it's temporary. But I sure could use some energy!

I love taco bell taco may its so minced. And great flavor plus a side of it is only like 60 cents.

I can't do my Protein drinks either. However a nurse who works with my surgeon recommended this Protein Shots but don't drink them pour a little in your Water.

We had our Thanksgiving meal on Tuesday. My husband works all holidays unless they fall on his days off (Mon. Tue.)

I had the hardest time with the turkey. It was moist, I even put a little bit of gravy on it; still no go. I went to Taco Bell and had the bean burrito ( 2 meals ); I removed the tortilla part.

I can do chicken salad, but not chicken itself, not even the dark meat. I handle Wendy's Chili and my homemade (with ground turkey) well, at 5 weeks out, but I still have trouble with meat.< /p>

To be honest, I am sick of the Protein drinks, but need them to get my Protein in daily.
