Week 3 post-op... can I have scrambled eggs?



Recommended Posts

I have been handeling mushey foods just fine and I was wondering if I could have scrambled eggs. Is that allowed in the 2-4 weeks-post op diet?

Scrambled eggs is on my pureed food list for week 3 and 4. I would say yes but you might want to check with your doctor or dietician.

Sadly, my doc says no unless they've been through the blender after cooking. :) Not good. I tried it. Anything that requires chewing is not allowed in his book. Better for the soft foods weeks 5-6 on my doc's plan...

I'm 3 week post op today and eggs were on my mushy list for Day 8-22 post op. Every doctor is different, I'd check with your doctor.

My doctor's diet has 4 phases and eggs are in the 2nd phase which are mushy foods. He would prefer they are eggbeaters for obvious nutrition reasons, but eggs were allowed for me after 2 weeks of liquids. It is best to check with your doctor to find out what he/she wants you to do though.

Every doctor really is different... I don't know that I could've handled some of your guy's doctors. :) So strict. By week three I was having all food soft- real food too. The only thing I couldn't have was beef, seeds, and potato skins. I could have those after my first fill- which was about 5 weeks post op.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
