Ok I'm not a major fan of beef for a number of reasons but I know it's great for protein...I'm a little over 6 weeks out and haven't had any beef thus far...my question is is it okay to eat it now...my Nut gave me a list of things I can eat during this stage which included beef but I'm afraid it won't settle well or it will take longer to digest....I know the only way to find out is to try it but would love to get others experience with it...thanks!

I've done ground beef/burgers without the Buns without issue but I haven't has steak yet. I'm 10 weeks and I think I want to wait until I'm at least 12 to try steak, but it will be filet mignon when I do because it's the most tender (and delicious ;) )

I actually do much better with beef then chicken. It just has to be soft like ground beef, roast, filet, etc. I am three months out and did have a very lean sirloin steak the other day. It was wonderful. :-)

Toast has been on my OK list for a while but I only eat about half a slice on the weekend with my eggs. I stick to crackers and baked pita chips (they seem to have more Protein in them and fewer carbs).

Filet mignon remains my favorite. Surgeon advised me to avoid bread forever, if possible, because of high carbs. Thankfully I do not crave bread, but supposedly cravings will return 6 months to one year after surgery. I also find that beef is easier to eat than chicken. But I force myself to eat chicken occasionally simply for diversity.
