Cherry 71 Posted August 22, 2013 I'm 4 months post op. I can no longer eat eggs. OMG wth? Pre op, I lived on eggs-one of my favorite things to eat. For me pre op diet, I ate them 2-3x a day; every way including just egg whites. So now. As soon as a bit hits my stomach, I'm in pain. Then they give me gas. Bye bye eggs. I miss you Anyone else experience this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They make me so sick every time. 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBdoodle 483 Posted August 22, 2013 LOL I'm just the opposite !! I was not a big fan of eggs before surgery now I love em' I'm glad because they are a good source of Protein and low in fat and calories. I cannot eat meat now...just a big turn off post surgery but I can do seafood. I think we all have some tradeoffs with this surgery !!! 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElleG 394 Posted August 22, 2013 That was the first thing to make me puke and I puked for a couple hours. I tried them again several months later and just on a salad then a while later scrambled again and it went ok. Give it some time and try again, it might be a food that is a no-no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerz 251 Posted August 22, 2013 My first post op meal was eggs and I puked so bad that I was afraid of them for months. I can eat them now tho. HW:358 DOS:338 CW:275 SD:1/28/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamworthit 208 Posted August 22, 2013 No eggs for me either sadly. They make me wanna puke thinking about them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry 71 Posted August 23, 2013 Isn't it weird? I just am angry about it because I NEED the Protein from them. I'm 43. I've had favorite foods my entire life. After surgery, I have not had one craving NOT ONE! I also have little to no appetite and could care less if I eat something for 'survival' vs 'taste'. My favorite foods don't matter to me one bit anymore. I've never liked sea food. I am wondering if I should give it another try. I WISH I liked lobster - maybe I might now.

ArmyOfMe 82 Posted August 23, 2013 I loved eggs pre-op but now ... I can't bring myself to touch them. It's so sad. I can only stomach them if they're masked in foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerz 251 Posted August 23, 2013 I get it Cherry. My Fav foods are not my Favorite anymore, not because I dont like it, because it's more of a "I don't get excited anymore." I guess the RNY forced me to have a "eat to live, not live to eat" mentality so I look at food in terms of nutrition now. For instance, when I see a piece of chicken, I'm like "Oh that's a big piece of Protein right there!" lol HW:358 DOS:338 CW:275 SD:1/28/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJenn 542 Posted August 23, 2013 I can't even finish a hard boiled medium egg. I get BAD stomach pains that eventually turns to a full/discomfort feeling that last forever. And then turns to gas. I have stayed away for a longtime. Never understood how I can eat 1/2 of something could eat more if I tried. And can't finish a medium egg??! Weird! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
