You should go by your doctors guidelines, for me I was allowed a egg and was able to eat a few bites. Many people have trouble with eggs at first.

I am two weeks out- can I start eggs?

Thats the problem- my doctors guide is vague- and since they mostly do lap-bands- its the eating guide for them- and eggs is no where on any of the lists all the way thru-

I started eggs on my 3rd week. Soft poached. I can only eat 1/2 and I feel restriction!

Hi CMSUmom;

I have the diet sleeve guide for a couple of doctors around the nation, including Cornell & Hopkins University. Send me a private message (click on my user name first) and provide your email and I will forward docs to you.

eggs were sort of hard on me, scrambled at first and I still struggle at almost 8 months out. But I can do deviled and egg salad just fine. Hmmm. But good news is, the sleeve works! Best wishes.

I was able to start eating liquid eggs as early as 10 days out granted i could take full liquids with no problem. Day 18 now and I love making mini omelettes. :D (posted my personal omelette recipe in the recipe forum)

Grats on the new sleeve!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
