You need to ask your doctor.I was still on liquids then. Don't progress your diet before your surgeon gives you the go abead. Your stomach is raw, swollen and needs to heal without having to work to digest food. Not worth the risk of a leak infection or death.

Don't do it. My hospital did a research study of post op bariatric patients and found that egg have a Protein that can cause digestive complications in some patients if introduced before 4 weeks.

What does your plan say?

Follow it closely.

It is set up that way for many reasons

My plan said I can introduce in 7 to 10 day so I guess one more day won't kill me

My doctor said I could try egg on day 10 and then if that was ok I could also try fish. Day 6 may be too soon. I'm at day 8 now can't wait for day 10.

Adriant, I've never heard that scrambled eggs are hard to digest...seems strange that poached eggs would be different...ingredients are the same right?

My post-op diet has been in stages, with stage 1 being liquids in the hospital. Started stage 2 puréed food the day I left the hospital, my surgeon moved me to stage 3 soft foods at my 2 week post-op appointment. I was permitted egg substitute at the puréed food stage, and now can have them any way I want them.

I was put on soft foods at week 2, they told me to avoid hard boiled eggs for now. My first soft food was a scrambled egg and it went fine.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
