So I am a little over 4 weeks post op and was considering trying ground meet for dinner tonight with a bit of gravy to ensure moistness. Just curious before I try if anyone had difficulty with ground beef this early on?

Thanks.

Ground beef was the one meat I could tolerate besides fish when I first started on solid foods. I buy 96% lean ground beef and make a tiny taco salad (sans the tortilla bowl of course!) with a couple of tablespoons of the seasoned meat, a little bit of refried Beans,a sprinkling of shredded cheese and about half a teaspoon of sour cream. High Protein, good Fiber and yummy. :)

I'm almost a year and a half out and I still have trouble with any red meat. I try to avoid it completely. Pork also. For the most part, all I eat for meat is chicken, turkey, or tuna.< /p>

Seems to have gone well. Made a small burger in brown gravy. It was very moist and easy to eat.

Thanks for all the responses!

I don't have any issues with it as long as it's not too fatty. I eat the butterball turkey burgers all the time.

I like ground chicken over ground turkey. It seems more moist to me but that might be all in my head. :-)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
