Problems with poultry...



Recommended Posts

For the life of me I cannot keep any kind of poultry down! I've tried everything. It's my favorite food and I can't eat it. Anyone else have this problem? Will it get better? Help!

I have has the hardest time as well and my dr said that all his patients have the same issue ...no one seems to be able to handle poultry , his suggestion is salmon and fish but I'll be honest I don't like neither so u have been eating ground turkey in my chili and salads

I've tried the ground kinds and they come back up too, but ground beef does not. Weird!!

Wonder what's in poultry that does that?

Maybe it's just a texture and processing thing ...I have tried chicken so many different ways and nothing has worked ...I have been ok with ground turkey but have only eaten it in chili ....otherwise I haven't been able to stomach anything else ...salad is my favorite at the moment cause its something different ....I became lactose intolerant after the surgery so that keeps a good majority of things off the list

I tried chopping chicken up in my food processor and adding chicken gravy to moisten it. I had no problems with it that way. I haven't had it since because after I have something sometimes I can't stand the thought of having it again. I also tried Willow Tree chicken salad. That made me nauseous - I think it was the mayo.< /p>

When was your surgery? For the first few months I couldn't do any chicken without getting sick, but I'm fine with it now at almost 5 months out.

I'm past done with chicken. Have had some awful experiences with chicken. Makes me sad but now the thought of it makes me queasy.

I have been eating ground turkey (Preop) for months now, i love it! The best seasoning for me is MAGIC - Prudhomme's Poultry Seasoning - green top glass bottle. I simmer frozen turkey patty in Water about 20 minutes to thaw it and cook through, til Water evaporates - then fry it in a little olive oil. I buy 2 pounds and freeze it in divided portions in baggies. It digests so much better than hamburger for me . Sure hope i can handle that after surgery.

I dont know how any of you are getting your Protein in- from the posts you should all be bald by now! LOL! Not trying to be mean. I expect to be right there with you soon, i hope. :)

Give it a break for a month or so and try again. chicken can be harder to digest.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
