So I just tried my first scrambled egg at 2 weeks out and loved it. My question is, is it bad I can get in 1 full egg this early out? (Minus a bite left)

I notice now though that I'm pretty stuffed. My sense of fullness seems to be a little delayed lol as it was pre-op too.

I just had eggs this morning and it was my first food and I was able to eat all 1/4 of it and it took me a lil to realize I was full. I had burp when I finished eating, sorry I'd that tmi lol.

I stay away from eggs as it was the first food I tried as a solid. I tried to eat them too soon after surgery and they all came up. Kind puts you of eggs for a while.

i liked eggs pre-op, but for some reason during weeks 3 & 4 post-op all I wanted to eat was eggs. I craved them morning noon and night haha. Your sense of fullness won't be immediate, which is why we have to eat slow, but getting in a whole egg isn't bad. Glad you were able to enjoy it, it was my first solid food too :)

I saw my nut today and she said 1 egg at this stage was totally fine (I am 1 week post-op). Egg beaters are on my list, but I hate the taste and texture, so she said I could do 1 egg instead.

That so funny. Minus fried stuff sweet stuff, etc, I'm supposed to be back on regular foods at 2 months post op....except scrambled eggs....that is the ONLY food my doc says to wait til 3 months for!!! Yet how many of you use it as one if your first solids??? The differences in pre and post op diets from doc to doc crack me up!!!!!

I was told only one egg per week cause it was bad for the pouch but as much egg beater as wanted he said cause of the cholesterol

What are they supposed to do to the pouch?? I don't eat them much simply because I hardly ever eat Breakfast. I just don't get hungry till about 10 each day. I have a little oj to keep sugar normal. But really bad on pouch??

I tried scrambled at 2 weeks and after one bite I was sick. So I waited. I tried again at 4 weeks, still sick. Fastforward to week 8 and am good with them, but I have actually changed tastes and prefer sunnyside up now, when I loved scrambled before. They were my almost every day Breakfast LOL

How are they bad for your pouch? I will be living off of them b/c of the Protein content and low calories.

      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.
