Everyone is so different. I'm a little over a year out and still can't tolerate ground meat - beef, chicken, turkey, any ground meat can be an issue (sausage, meatballs, etc).

Google CRACK SLAW. It's a good recipe to use with ground beef.

I did better with ground beef than ground turkey. The fat content of the beef helped it go down easier.

Oh, and since someone mentioned cucumbers, I have an odd cucumber issue! I can eat peeled cucumbers, and I can eat baby cucumbers. But if I eat regular sized cucumbers with the skin on them - PAIN! Must just be thinner skin on baby cukes I guess!

YES -- this exactly!! I had this for almost 18 months post surgery.

In fact, there were a few times that eating out they were cut up in a salad and I just forgot -- and I always paid for it. Miserable.

My husband starting calling them Puke-cumbers -- A bit TMI -- but, well, there you go.

It's only been recently that I can eat the regular sized ones with the skin -- but I am still quite leery...

My last mistake with these was a couple of weeks ago when I forgot they came on the Jimmy John's Unwich that I ordered. PAIN!

Full fat cheese: the only kind I eat. Meat: the rest of my diet!

Deli meats in general are a no go... I would say Ham because of the moisture sits the best... but not worth it to me. The sliced Roast Turkey at Trader Joe's is very doable...thicker and much moister

When I try to make protein pancakes and other healthy carby type things...sometimes they just sit like lead... and again sorry I even tried.

It's interesting to me that the deli meats seem to be mentioned a few times. I have been spreading them with laughing cow cheese and dipping them in light mayo, greek yogurt or mustard. Still, they just feel like they are all up in my throat. I have had turkey several other ways without issues!
