Yes. I've had chicken and some lunch meats so far (turkey & roast beef).

I didn't start eating real food until week 5. I focused on staying hydrated and eating Protein shakes and Soup with added Protein. After week 5 it has been protein, protein, protein, a little fat and little to no carbs. And don't forget the Water. My doctor's recommendation is to add new food once a week. If it doesn't sit well, don't force it. Try it again in a month.

So protein first - that is essential in healing, then other stuff and I would stay away from the carbs at first - while your stomach is healing.

Good luck

Hello...I'm new to the forum, and I was sleeved April 14, 2014. I have lost a total of 43 lbs but with some pretty crazy complications...I had a pretty bad reaction to my incision tape, and really haven't been able to eat but teaspoon size amounts every four or five hours. I always take my Vitamins, but it takes me almost all day to do so. I developed a kidney infection, and my allergic reaction to the tape is still clearing up....sigh....I kept thinking I am just being dramatic, but seriously, im weak and tired. My Dr is great, and his staff are extremely supportive....however, I go back to work Monday the 12th, and I travel every week for my agency. My biggest concern, ...dragging luggage through a busy airport, when I barely have the strength to make dinner for my family!...I have made Protein my priority, but seriously, can't stand the shakes!...any suggestions for my concerns?...all would be most welcome!!
