I had scrambled eggs at two weeks myself. Every bite seemed to cause me some problems, so I shelved eggs for about a month, and then they went down fine. Two whole eggs does seem like a bit much for two weeks out portion-wise, but virtually all pureed plans give the green light to eggs.

You need to overeat on a regular basis for several months to stretch. You will not gain weight because you can't possibly be getting enough calories to maintain a 50 BMI right now. The early going is a virtual guarantee of weight loss unless you are drinking thousands of calories worth of sugary drinks. Once you've lost a bunch and entered maintenance, you will be able to tolerate more even though your maintenance requires less, and I think at that point you'll want to be careful, but just consider this experimentation that you needed to do to test your limits. Anything that doesn't sit well, just give a two week moratorium to and try again.

As was said above I think it would have to be a regular thing to stretch the stomach. Next time only make yourself one egg and add a little cheese to it to add a touch of volume and more Protein. You will be surprised how filling that may be to you. I'm just over a month out and can barley finish one egg with a tablespoon of shredded cheddar on it.

No it won't stretch you stomach. Next time start with just 1 egg. I was full on 1 egg made with a tiny bit of cheese and greek yogurt to keep them moist for a really long time.

Oh gosh now I feel like I super overate! In my defence they were super tiny lol! That sounds delicious and also I've been having a teaspoon of honey with my iced tie is this considered a bad habit? Or is artificial sweetener better?

I am not a fake sugar person. I use raw honey as sweetener quite often. If that is your only sugar source it's not going to hurt. However once you are able to add in fruit, you may want to monitor that.

It's an uncomfortable feeling. It will pass try walking a bit. The first time that happened to me it took an hour to go away. I ended up alternating between walking and sipping hot Water.< /p>

Maybe Greek yogurt is what you want for a while.

There are dozens of different flavors and many are 80-90 calories for a nice sized bowl that still has 12+ grams of Protein.

There are enough different brands and flavors of Greek yogurt that it's not likely you'll get burned out on it like most of us do with Protein shakes.

I'm sorry you got sick JudeaJordon. I am totally not meaning to sound rude or mean but reading thru this post and following your time line of comments made me laugh a little bit...well a lot. Not because you were sick, but because I felt like I was living it with you!! I am pre op and learning from all of you. Your confidence in eating two tiny eggs, to feeling good, to justifying again they were tiny, to feeling something in your throat, to BAM, throwing up and declaring no eggs ever again. It's so not funny and funny at the same time. I'm sorry!! 1 egg if ever again?

      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.
