Are you using a low-fat/light mayo? Full-fat versions can upset the stomach and cause the symptoms you're talking about. If so, try using less. If you currently put in a teaspoon to help those things go down, cut it to half a teaspoon and be aware of how much total you're consuming in a day. Same goes for any oils or butter you may be using to make your eggs.

eggs didn't agree with me till about month four and tuna is also hard on a new stomach. Put those things aside and try again after a few more weeks.

I don't agree with the low-fat/light being better either. Where do you get that info from? They are filled with lots of artificial stuff that can cause more issues than the real stuff

My doctor told me to ONLY eat light or low fat mayo from here on out once I was able to add it back into my diet.
As far as eggs go, how they are prepared will affect how your pouch reacts to it. Scrambling them will just add air to them which will cause you pain while eating them. When I make them I do over easy or hard boiled and haven't had issues yet!!

So much contradictory info. My NUT said low fat too but I'm not sure I will do that. It's amazing how different all the Drs are.

I could t eat any solids for 8 weeks. 2 weeks clear, 2 weeks purée, 2 weeks soft and then I could start introducing solids! No problems!

i received info from NUT to use light/lowfat mayo. Everybody gets different info and have their own opinion. Did you not get told to follow a high Protein low fat diet?

No. And I've lost 135lbs and maintained the loss for three years now. My plan was low carb high protein. The less processed the better. Real mayo has lower carbs and chemicals. When they remove the fat they add simple carbs (sugar) to replace it so full fat mayo is a better choice on my plan.

But here's a suggestion, try plain Greek yogurt instead of either. I love Fage and you can use the 0% fat if that's what works on your plan. Get in some protein that way!

Back to the eggs... I tried them every possible way and they were the one of last things that kept bothering my stomach.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
