Beef and steak

Have many/any of you had steak yet?? I am kind of wishing for some but thought I would see where you all stood with it. Alice

I have had steak about 3 or 4 times over the last month and I haven't had any problems with it. Just make sure it is a good cut of meat cooked to be tender. I have little ones so I cut small pieces for them and those pieces I cut in half for me. I can only eat about 1/4 of a cup and not too many veggies after that b/c I'm full. I have had more problems with chicken than I have had w/ steak (I am finally able to eat chicken). Best of luck to you... ~Rachel

no problems here we eat triple trimmed sirloins...with absolutely no trace of fat/marble etc...in the meat I slice it VERY thin when I get a bite ...just in case I find a chewy part... I would stick with sirloin or filet mignon at first for tenderness...you can always use a mallet and pound on it before you cook it! Tried hamburger as well..no problems there either. I think beef stew would do very well since it falls apart.... the only thing I found tough/chewy so far has been thick cut boneless pork chops. Tried chewing a few bites and gave the rest to the dogs. Not worth the effort or stress wondering if it would get stuck.

I have hamburger all the time but I had steak about a month ago. It went down fine (or so I thought) about an hour later I went to take my pill for the day and took a sip of milk to wa**** down and up came all the steak! I won't do that again for awhile! But as usual everyone is different! Good luck Gina 12/15/03 RNY 341/271/175

Steak and hamburger are practically the only meats I can eat......They go down great for me......My surgeon doesn't wanting us eating them until 6 months out.....but since I was having so many problems with chicken and turkey I ask if I could try it early and it worked out great!!! Good luck and make sure to check with your surgeon first Jesi

Hello, No problems with steak. Great source of protein too. I loved beef before surgery and it is still my favorite now. Eat up! Tracy

Hi, no problems with steak or any beef! It's actually easier on me than chicken which can make me turn green quite frequently. Go for it!! Lisa G

I haven't had any problem with steak or hamburger. Just make sure you cut it into tiny pieces and chew, chew, chew. The main thing I have problems with is Pork and sometimes Chicken. Enjoy the steak is a great source of protein... Jill

I eat steak all the time. I've never had any problems with it. Same goes for pork. Chicken on the other hand
