By the 4th week I was able to eat soft food, but even at 2 1/2 months grilled chicken gives me trouble. Moist rotisserie chicken is easier, dark mat is easier than white. Try fish, that is easier.

I needed to stick with ground meats for quite a while before I could tolerate "solid" meats

It could have been how fast you ate, but likely you're just not ready for that stage. A lot of people can't do grilled chicken until 6 months out. It's one of the last meats you should try.

Omg I tried chicken salad at 3 weeks and it was a nightmare . Had to walk for 90 minutes because I felt like it was stuck and I was suffocating . I am 4 weeks out and can only do like 2 oz of fish . Tried to put ham in a scrambled egg this am and that didn’t work . I think meats r just way far in the future . Stick with eggs , fish, cottage cheese and yogurt . I rely on at least one Protein Drink a day

I'm sorry to hear of your difficulty. I would have thought chicken would be a safe bet. How does bacon work for you?

Yep yep. One of my first puke fests post op was thanks to some dry chicken that got stuck/wouldn’t go through my stoma. Also had it happen with a pork chop.

The good news is I’m six months post op and haven’t had that happen in at least 2 or 3 months. I also only eat really moist chicken and make sure I chew the heck out of it.

Omg 4 th week our I tried chicken salad - used thighs but still couldn’t eat it . Got stuck real bad . Stay away from all chicken and meat . I am on week 5 and have just been a been able to manage fish and poached eggs . Tried egg salad today with hard boiled egg and no go . So to answer your question , wanting to puke in chicken is totally normal

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
