Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 I've got soemthing a little weird going on. About three times in the last five weeks I've barfed up my dinner. The last time (two nights ago) I realized it's only when I have grilled chicken. This is really weird. The first two times I'd cooked it with a different marinade each time. The last just used a little salt and pepper. It didn't matter, it came right back up. The chicken was refrigerator thawed, with very little handling, and from two different stores. And my family, who ate from the same grilling, didn't have any problems at all. Now, I can eat fried chicken day and night without any problems. Do you think my body was objecting to the lack of fat? That's the only explanation I can come up with. I'm not having a problem with any thing else. It's so weird. P post-op 05-30-01 Dr. Kim down 95 lbs!

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2001 Report Share Posted December 8, 2001 Hi - Beef, chicken, turkey, pork and lamb are all a bit hard for me to get down in any meaningful quantity. After a few bites it's like I'm full. I am not, however. I can go on to eat veggies, salad, cottage cheese, eggs, liquids, etc., for quite a while after I feel full on the meat proteins. I seem to tolerate shrimp, crab, fish, and other seafood, just fine, though. I mentioned this issue to Barbara Metcalf, Dr. Rabkin's nurse. She asked if I was able to eat seafood and then went on to say that many people are able to eat it. Apparently, this situation is not unusual. I wonder if this is due to the same mysterious process that is causing you your problem with chicken. Best- Nick food stuff > I've got soemthing a little weird going on.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2001 Report Share Posted December 8, 2001 Nick, , et all Since surgery my beef consumption has fallen to an all time low and cows the world over are rejoicing....Beef which I LOVED pre-op seems real tough to digest post-op at first I thought I was the meat to dry....But I sincerely have lost my taste for beef....My favorites seem to be chicken and shrimp and shrimp seems to go down much smoother than anything else.....Cheese is another personal favorite good protein and calcium source (especially for those with high PTH and low calcicum) I crave chicken and cheese all the time (not together)...I think that meats are real tough and my stomach " fill ups " quickly on the meats because my stomach is to lazy to go through the tough digestion problems so I stick to chicken and shrimp....Of course that is my experience that is worth a bag of chips!
