I'm at the soft food & purée stage at 3 weeks, but I'm terrified to try an egg!



Recommended Posts

A scrambled egg was the first thing I ate on the Puree stage and had no issue. I haven't dumped anything as of yet (fingers crossed). I am 5 weeks post op, so I haven't really eaten a whole lot either...

I also had eggs early on.. Even had egg salad, no issues. I had some Soup that didn't agree with me. That's it so far.

I have never dumped on anything. I had no problems with an egg once I was on softer solids.

Just eat VERY slowly. At the first sign of trouble, stop eating and wait at least 10 minutes before trying to eat any more.

At three weeks an egg should be no problem. My first egg was between soft and hard boiles and it was fine

I had my first egg yesterday at 15 days out and took my time and went down much easier than expected. My Nut just made said it had to be moist, not dry and it was yummy! Good luck and hope when you have one you have the same experience I did!

I've been eating eggs since the all liquid stage ended and never had a problem. Hard boil, scrambled and egg salad.. You won't know what agrees with you until you try it ????

      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.
