Dinner and pain



Recommended Posts

I am in soft stage and had scrambled egg for dinner. I didn't even finish 1 egg so I am not sure what happened but now I feel like I have an elephant sitting on my chest and its hurting so bad. Maybe I ate to fast and it's having to digest??? I just hope I haven't hurt anything, ugh...

Sounds like it was too much egg. When I was in soft stage I could only eat half an egg. If you slow down your eating, it will be easier to tell when you are getting full. I'm sure you didn't hurt yourself, but it sure can make you miserable to the point of throwing up. Good luck.

I experienced this same exact thing. I was so flipping excited I ate half the egg rather quickly by using the size of bite that got me to 300lbs! Within a few minutes was hurting. My throat felt like it was collapsing. It was a burning. I couldn't swallow, I felt nauseous and even started sweating. So I took a drink of Water to wash it down... And it got worse for a few seconds then let up! The next morning I was taking my Multi-Vitamin with water and got the same feeling... This time I was driving my son to daycare. And I gagged a few times like I was going to throw up... So I pulled over and got out and circled my car a few times and I was fine. Everyone advised me when I posted about my egg experience to walk walk walk.. I guess it helps move the food down. Since then I have been able to eat a whole egg over a 30 min time period with no problem. I just take very small bites and chew it really really well.

Thanks- I just panicked. I don't think I ate more then 1/2 an egg. It tasted great but I have to learn to slow it down..

eggs seem to have a problem settling in a new sleeve. If you ate it fast you will definitely have some discomfort as well. Wait a few days and try again it will probably be much better! :)

Thank you, thank you to everyone on this thread! I was so scared this morning until I read this! I ate a 1/2 an egg and it feels like I'm going to throw up! It hurts so badly! I'm waiting for it to pass right now.... I forgot the whole "chew till its liquid in your mouth" and ate like the old 315 pound me.....

I'm still on full liquids for 11 days. I'm almost afraid to start eating real food. I can't imagine anything being easier then a soft scrambled egg. I guess you really have to watch your bites and timing.

      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. 🤞
