Every time I have either one. I get this crazy pain in my chest, my pouch hurts and I feel like I need to vomit. I'm not going to try it any more. Those episodes last like 10-15 minutes and are awful. Why does this happen? All I had was a corner piece of a slice of turkey deli meat this time.

Sounds like its stuck. Happens alot with chicken and turkey in some people. Wait a few weeks and try again.

You're lucky it only lasts 15 mins. My fist time lasted 2 1/2 hours. :-p

Jeepchick is right. Wait a couple weeks and try again, but do it cautiously. My surgery was May 30 and I still can't do chicken, turkey or tuna. I can eat eggs and fish (except tuna for some reason) every day. :-)

I have the same problem with hard boiled eggs if there's not enough mayo. It's just too dry & gets stuck - it's a horrible feeling...

I may never eat chicken again. Every single one has been a disaster. My nutritionist told me to wait awhile and try again with dark meat..idk tho cause I have developed this serious aversion now.

Thanks for giving me hope. I love grilled chicken salads and would like to enjoy them again someday. :-)

I'm 4.5 months post op and I'm just now able to handle chicken and turkey. I still can't do ground beef... But I can do premium steak.

chicken just didn't go down right and it didn't even taste good. What I did notice is I'm able to eat marinated chicken tho and also oven roasted. It has to be super super moist.

I am 3years out and the only chicken/turkey I can eat r either ground or thin deli meat. But I can eat steak and jerkey fine. It's cause I can cook the steak medium. And the chicken has 2b fully cooked. The longest episode I had was 14hrs. I don't even try 2 eat the breast any more only ground or deil chipped thin.

      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.
