eggs are often the topic of discussion as they are one of the biggest obstacles for many bandsters to consume.

BTW-I try to mix them with turkey sausage, omelettes, salsa, veggies so that they go down easier. Still, if you take small enough bites and chew it to death it should pass through the stoma. But we all struggle with bite size don't we?

I have never had a problem with eggs. Cooked any way they go down.

But everyone is different.

I have eaten eggs since I could eat real food.. actually when I was on soft foods, I had some eggbeaters scrambled but I can eat real eggs easily... I do put some turkey sausage and some cheese in them to make omelettes.. they all go down easily... even fried eggs do well as long as I keep the bites small...

If I don't chew them well I do have problems with them, odd, but I do and I have a friend who is 3 years post op and she has the same issue.

Honestly, I think the biggest problem with anything is chewing. No matter what you eat your must chew, chew, chew!!

Sometimes I have problems with eggs. If i have scrambled eggs I usually whisk with some skim milk to keep them moist. If they are dry I can not eat them. It is all trial and error. Best of luck.

Yeah I have to mix with non fat milk, or turkey sausage, or my fave over medium because the egg yolk makes them easier to go down.

I am finding the same thing. The bariatric nurse at my Drs office said there is sometimes a buildup of mucous in the pouch in the morning. I even tried to eat Greek yogurt and even with that it feels like its getting stuck in the morning. It's coffee then a Protein shake in the morning for me

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
