Anyone CRAVING Red Meat too??

Boy do I crave red meat, not hamburger, I mean rare steak. I faithfully take my vitamins and protein daily. But get me in a restaurant and I almost pull the waiter by his tie down to my face and say, "Rare, I mean RARE, please." "Just wiggle it over some flame". Then I bring the rest of the steak home and eat the leftovers for a day or two. Nothing gets me excited like a good ribeye. Not shrimp, chicken, etc. Anyone experiencing this desire for bloody meat too? LOL Seriously, I'm like a Zombie. Signed, Drooling in Richmond

Red meat is really the only meat I can tolerate or CRAVE since 3 mos post op-OMG-I eat filet minon at least 5 days a week!! Considering each pice=at least 2 meals, it's buget friendly. Rare is the yummiest!!! I never liked red meat till WLS. I guess it's the hormones! Samantha

Gina, I have been craving red meat too.. I want steak sooo bad. but my doctor has me off of ham, beef and pork til 6 months out. I only have a little less than a month to go. I know when I hit my 6 months I am grilling me a nice ribeye that is mid rare. I also have been craving prok ribs, and pork chops. Take care, Chrissy 226/161/125

Gina, I love the red meat too. Porterhouse, rib eye, Delmonico. Sometimes I go in the gourmet butcher shop and buy myself a $20 steak, go home and cook it up like I am going to be able to eat it. What a joke! But, I don't eat any pork, no fish/shellfish, no lamb, turkey, chicken, cottage cheese, eggs, soy, I am very fussy, so beef and cheese are my only sources of protein. Cows are so tasty.
