Kindle 8,667 Posted December 20, 2014 I eat red meat all the time...I much prefer it to fish or chicken. I've had no problems with beef, elk, bison or venison. I started eating tiny beef burgers when I was cleared for regular food, about 7 weeks out. I eat steak, burger, roasts, tenderloin, and my favorite is BBQ ribs from my local deli.

SBovee 20 Posted December 20, 2014 My surgeon had us wait at least two months after surgery. I eat red meat but only once in a great while and do fine with it. It sets really heavy on my stomach so I don't eat but a few bites when I do eat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Mac 6,262 Posted December 20, 2014 I think I had my first steak around six weeks. It is harder for me to chew and swallow fish as opposed to beef. Go figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SnohoGal98296 371 Posted December 21, 2014 It is funny, I can only eat about 2 ounces of red meat before I am full, all other meats I average around 3 ounces and if in a sauce, then I can do almost 4 ounces. I am 6.5 months out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
