Eggs and stages



Recommended Posts

It sounds like most of us have eggs on our puree plan. I know mine specifies "scrambled", but I'm wondering how the rest of you treat eggs during this stage. I'd love a hard boiled or deviled egg right now but I'm not sure how big of a difference the texture makes.

I am 3 months post op and unless I really chew, I still struggle with hard boiled eggs. I only have 1.6cc's in my band.

You can have about any style egg. I first tried hard boiled by squishing them with a fork. Over time I could no long stand the taste of them. Although I do enjoy an omlet when going out for Breakfast. The dog gets most of it, but cheese is good:)

You know what I find funny, on my Stage 3: pureed Foods it specifically states NO scrambled eggs. I can have poached eggs. One more week till I get pureed foods! :-)

I've had hardboiled. I just dice them up really small and take care to chew really well.

I am with par1959. I always loved eggs. For some crazy reason I can no longer stand the taste of them! I have tried them every way the can be made. Yuck.

I would add some mayo if trying hard boiled that early out. Moisture is the key.

I started with scrambled 2 weeks out and added a touch of milk to make them soft but By the next week I was on to boiled! I Eat eggs almost everyday but not always the yolk it just depends. We have chickens so free eggs all the time!

Jealous! Surprisingly, we're actually allowed to have chickens in the city here but I'm pretty sure my landlord would lay an egg herself if she found one in the yard, lol.

I ended up being lazy and just going with refried Beans, but eggs are still on the agenda :)

      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.
