.....I can't eat 'em. I scrambled an egg this morning, very sloppy as advised...2 tablespoons, that was it. I tried a mince meat puree yesterday..same thing. I haven't had a fill yet, so it isn't restriction.Liquids? Soups? Shakes? no problemo.

Anyone else have this issue, and if so, how did YOU deal with it?:thumbup:

At 8 months post-op I still can not eat eggs. Some people just can't tolerate them after being banded.

I am having no problems with Blended meals ..I have not tried eggs as The dietitian said they seem to cause people a bit of a problem ..

I have had Blended Spaghetti Bol. with pasta.......Blended roast chicken with potato,sweet potato and peas Blended with a lot of chicken gravy.....Curried chicken , Rice, carrots,potato and beans ,with lots of curry juice....Thinking of cooking a stew sometime and blending up that too as long as you have plenty of gravy/juice....

I have another week on this then hopefully I can get onto real EATING again only small portions...

Have you rung or been back to your Dietitian to talk about your problems ?? it might be worth doing..

Best of Luck...

Thank you both for your input. I guess I will stay away from eggs for now.As for the other stuff, maybe I need to only mush 1-2 ingredients together, like you do, Marion. Maybe chicken and mashed potato to start, yes, I'll try that. Not going to stress about it though,- I am due to return on 23rd for my weigh in and check up, I'll just do liquids if I have to, until then. It is a 4 hour trip to visit the surgeon's rooms, so I will just hang in there- but I WILL try just 1-2 ingredients. Thanks again. :thumbup:

Make sure you add gravy to make it pretty liquidy.....

At that stage I did not throw anything in a blender. That just seems so gross I know I could not have eaten it. There are plenty of foods that are soft and mushie enough to make it through the stage. Yogurt, soup, oatmeal, chili ............

Don't assume it isn't restriction. You may be one of the lucky ones, like me, who had some restriction just from having the band placed. BUT, this also means your stomach may be sensitive to being messed with. This may mean you need smaller fills than some and may tighten easily when stressed. Just enjoy it for now!
