LuminousLife 145 Posted December 18, 2013 Tonight is my first meal. I made 1/2 egg with a 1/8 slice of cheese. It took me a half of an hour to take 2 tiny bites (with a baby fork), chew it to mush and swallow. Now I feel queasy. Is that what full feels like? My paperwork says a portion should be around 1/4 of a cup. I managed less than a tablespoon. Anyone else experience this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LuminousLife 145 Posted December 18, 2013 Today is 2 weeks. I met with my Nut and she gave me the all clear. We discussed the egg and cheese and she said that was good. This is the 1st time I've ever had nausea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReDbEaN 654 Posted December 18, 2013 I was still on liquids at that point, so I would suggest not pushing it. I couldn't eat a whole egg til about 5-6 weeks 1 CindyGirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ribearty 544 Posted December 18, 2013 Some people have problems with eggs in the beginning. I know when I add cheese to my eggs it seems to make them more filling. You will be able to eat more further out. In the beginning, when you try a food if it doesn't agree with you, wait a week or so and try it again. Sometimes your stomach is not ready for it even though your diet sheets say you can have it. You may also have internal swelling from the surgery. You will be able to take in a larger amount soon. Good luck. 2 CindyGirl and LuminousLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuminousLife 145 Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks, going to go for my Protein Shake instead tonight. Any suggestions for tomorrow? Cottage cheese is on my list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baniwala 40 Posted December 19, 2013 Early out I liked cream of wheat, creamy Soups, cottage cheese, whipped mashed potatoes, yogurts, retried Beans and cheese. Good Luck! It gets easier everyday! 2 CindyGirl and LuminousLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onedaycloser 136 Posted December 19, 2013 I'm day 17 had a scrambled egg w/ cheese today and lost it! Went back to shake. Bought some Bob Evans mashed potatoes going to try a small amount later ? First time I've been sick with my sleeve. 1 CindyGirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did add 3 saltine crackers to my broth, they mushed up in the hot Soup and boy did that taste GOOD!...Good luck everybody 2 LuminousLife and onedaycloser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branmuffin 190 Posted December 19, 2013 There's a recipe for egg custard on bariatriceating that I've been making weekly. It's delish and I can eat it unlike scrambled eggs still. 1 LuminousLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joatsaint 2,814 Posted December 20, 2013 eggs were one of the hardest things for Frankensleeve to digest. At the 2 month mark, I was still only eating about 4oz. total for the day. Just be sure and stay hydrated. Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted December 20, 2013 I would say you should still be on liquids based on everything I know and read, at 2 weeks. Don't rush it please. Bad results when you try things too soon.. Best wishes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
