Hi all, i need to start finish deciding which surgery i should get.  i LOVE filet mignon and eat it once a week, prepared medium rare or judst under medium rare. Anyone here have experience with steak who's already had Fobi surgery? Thank you, sg Debbie

Hi Debbie,  Have you researched the VSG (vertical sleeve)?  My daughter eats steak with no problem.  Obesity Help has a VSG site so if you want, please come over and read posts and proflies and add to your research.  Priscilla

I had the Fobi procedure and can't eat Filet Mignon or any other kind of steak like that. Thing is now that I have had this done I don't even want it.

A lot of people have problems digesting beef post op Fobi or an RNY, especially steak. To be honest with you, I have had a reversal of my Fobi and there is no way I see Steak as something my stomach can deal with. Deb

I have the RNY and I eat Filet Migon just fine.  It is extremely tender and I chew it well and have not had any problems at all. Hugs, Esther
