Did you try to eat the whole egg or just a bit?

You got to eat slow and put a sauce on it

i fried it over easy with kirkland cooking spray and had a bit of cheese on the side. i cut it into tiny pieces but the chest tightening feeling followed mid way..so i tossed it

Probably just a bit too much. I don't really get a good warning when I should stop until I take one bite too many. Early on, portions are impossibly difficult to estimate. Good luck as you figure out your path.

your worst enemy is the anxiety... make sure to pack some gas x for your first over night and some good music to power you through the initial walks post-op . Good Luck and let us know how your doing along the way.

Try for 1/3 or 1/2 the first time. You don't want to make yourself miserable. Good luck!

I tried to eat an egg the other day but I didn't eat the whole thing I just put enough to fit in a shot glass and I was okay
