Help-going to Mexico on vac-11 weeks post op

I need some suggestions for easy food to take along, esp protein. I plan on taking Alba and non fat dry milk. However, I am having problems eating meats, chicken and keeping it down-I guess I am having the dumping syndrome and am baffled as the first 4 weeks went so well. Any suggestions youcould give would be greatly appreciate. I was to start back on regular foods today but based on the problems I am having at dinner with the meats I am afraid to go ahead. Thanks

I was having problems keeping down liquids after a short period of time. It ended up that scar tissue had partially closed the opening from the stomach to large bowel. Double check with your doctor to make sure that is not your problem. Alot of people seem to like beef jerky, but not me. While you are there, try eating fi**** has always seemed to digest easier for me than anything else.

I was having problems eating dinner and decided to eat my main meal for lunch. In the evening I just eat light or have a protein shake. For now, skip the chicken since it may be too dry and stick to fish or meat. Try to eat foods that are moist so they go down easy. In Mexico they prepare flank steak in a shredded style. Don't recall what it's called thre but in Cuba it's Ropa Vieja and in Venezuela it's Carne Mechada. Some spanish countries call it Carne Ripiada. It's prepared in a soup and once removed it's grilled. Some people add a bit of tomato. It's very good but you really need to chew it. By the way, my co-worker had to have her esophogous (??) checked because she kept throwing up. It seems these little bumps had begun to grow from all the vomiting. The passage had become too narrow and they had to fix it. I suggest you mention this to your doctor so he can check it. Have fun in Mexico and stay away from the Margaritas.
