What to eat!

[luchaniyaj 0]

food just does not taste the same. I'm almost 5 weeks out and I can't eat chicken I gag to get it down, I can do shrimp and fish. But that all I've been trying. Help please any suggestions? Still can't get a whole Protein shake down some times..

It takes a while for your body to adjust. You are still healing. chicken can be tough so avoid it for a little while. Stick with softer foods for a while if you need to. I had to for a long time. What kind of Protein drink are you using? Premier Protein ready made drinks are only 11 oz and 30g Protein. If you haven't tried those, give them a try.

It sounds like you are having at least some problems with capacity - chew like crazy and keep portions smaller.

As far as the firmness of chicken, the supermarket should have ground chicken and ground turkey, and you could make for example chili with that and kidney Beans and/or black Beans, which have additional Protein.< /p>

Another thing they might sell is pulled chicken, which is shredded chicken breast in BBQ Sauce.< /p>

I'm doing the premier Protein shakes. I guess for now I'll stick with cottage cheese and yogurt. I'm going to add Beans. I'll give them a try. Thank you for your help
