I had my first fill 1/1413 and was able to eat scrambled eggs prior too and up until today. Went to eat my Breakfast as usual and kept getting stuck. It was very uncomfortable, but thankful it finally subsided. I tried three times over an hour and it just wouldn't work ( tiny bites, chew like crazy and waiting between bites). I was able to eat lunch and gunned with no problems. What gives?

The only thing I did different today was not have my coffee before breakfast.

A lot of bandsters have problems eating scrambled eggs (fortunately I am not one of them). My band is tighter in the morning, I don't try to eat anything for the first 2 hours and I always have coffee first.

My only suggestion is don't give up. Try having your coffee first (hot liquids do relax a tight band) and then try the eggs. You might find that works.

I have never had trouble with scrambled eggs unless I take too big of a bite. Keep trying, things change.

I eat eggs most days but I need ketchup on them to go down. But I love my eggs. It wont happen if they are plain. You might want to try over easy also.

Thanks dough for the feed back. I was sad bc eggs are usually my breakfast choice since bread isn't that easy for me. How does Cereal work if its solid and liquid at same time? Can u drink coffee or liquids right after since having milk with it?

I drink coffee up until I eat. Sometimes I have cereal, Special K Protein is really good. I don't drink while I eat even with cereal. Not because my doctor says I can't but because I choose not to. After I eat I don't drink for about 20 to 30 minutes cause I don't feel like it (again not because I can't).

This is all a trial thing, find what works for you. But, don't give up on eggs. Try them as everyone suggested.

I cannot do scrambled eggs either but over easy eggs work for me.

Just glad I like my eggs over easy or poached b/c I have read dozens of ppl saying they can't do scrambled anymore. I love, love, love eggs, I'd hate not being able to eat them.

Good luck with trying!

I eat cereal with a fork so that the milk drains off and no drinking during or after for an hour but all dr's are different, mine says one hr after eating.

I was having proems with breakfast too. I'm told I must have my breakfast to kick start the metabolism etc. my saving grace has been having a cup of warm boiled Water with a squeeze if lemon juice n then half an hour later the food goes down! It's good for weight loss to apparent. I presume we're a little swollen first thing. Try it. May help you too x

I can't eat anything but slider foods for Breakfast so I settle for a protien shake and my meds. I too have had trouble with eggs and have given up on them.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
