I'd anyone have scrambled eggs in the puréed phase???? How did it go if you did?

I couldn't wait to get to the puree stage and try eggs for an alternative Protein option! It was like heaven! I could only eat half of the egg at one sitting. It was easy to make the meal last by chewing, chewing, chewing...to savor the flavor and make sure there weren't going to be any issues with the texture or sticking when eating. For some people eggs seem to be hard on their stomach. Good luck, I hope you have good results!

So far so good I have had 4 bites with no issues so far. I made them with milk and a little cheese so they are nice and soft, seems to help. I can't wait for the puréed to be over I am not a fan of puréed things so I'm limited on my options for food. I'm ready to move on haha.

I'm looking forward to the pureed stage, mainly for the scrambled eggs (6 Grams Protein for one egg!) that and applesauce. only 4 days to go not counting today.

eggs were approved for my puréed stage. Mixed mine with Water to make them super soft and moist. I actually had a lot of modified Huevos rancheros in puréed stage.... Refried Beans, egg, cheese and green chili. Yum. Egg and cottage cheese also made a really soft "omelet".

. Looks like I can only do about half of the egg. But it's oh so good.

I didn't do so well with eggs. Well, egg whites in particular. For now, I am going to wait and try again later. I sure could use that Protein but it wasn't digesting well for me.

I've had egg beaters twice since starting puree (then saw how little Protein there is compared to real eggs :/), and a severely blenderized hard-boiled egg with a bit of mayo and Pickle Juice for egg salad (yes, I almost always make salad with a bit of pickle juice. Adds flavor and moisture.) The egg beaters are nice loosely scrambled. And the egg salad was heavenly. So far, eggs are the only thing I've found that actually agrees with my stomach. I pureed chicken, and managed two or three bites before my stomach very clearly announced that it had had enough.

I use to love poached eggs too. I tried some the other week and almost gagged. You gotta have some carbs and salt to choke them down. Scrambled eggs weren't bad. But that egg salad recipe sounds great.

Also I just bought egg beaters today because the have 5g of Protein. I think 1 large egg has 6g. Not much difference for the fat, and cholesterol reduction. Hopefully they taste OK. Maybe I will try them with cottage cheese as was suggested.

I decided to go with Eggland's best. I had so many doctors for teachers in my nutrition classes and sometimes it would get confusing. One teacher was all about eating a real egg, using real milk and butter because she thought our bodies were made to process them better than substitutes. Then you get a teacher who is all about using artificial products if it gets your calorie count down. Ahhhh!!! The choices!!! Anyhow I ate my first egg scrambled with a little milk and salt (oh how I enjoyed the salt after all the sweet). I also could only eat half. I am only 25 days out. Can't wait for the addition of some new foods. But have to admit the hunger is under control at this phase. Yeah....

I relied on Scrambled eggs when I first started my "pureed" stage. I would mix in american cheese. At the beginning I would only be able to eat half and egg but it was pure heaven. My dog would enjoy the rest

The first thing I had when I went from full liquids to pureed was scrambled egg whites (with Sriracha sauce). Best darned thing in the world at the time. And to this day, I have egg white omelets every single morning. They have been a godsend to me.

Be well…

      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.
