I am two weeks out- can I start eggs?

You should go by your doctors guidelines, for me I was allowed a egg and was able to eat a few bites. Many people have trouble with eggs at first.

Thats the problem- my doctors guide is vague- and since they mostly do lap-bands- its the eating guide for them- and eggs is no where on any of the lists all the way thru-

I was able to eat egg after two weeks. I did great with it! Good luck !!!!

I started eggs on my 3rd week. Soft poached. I can only eat 1/2 and I feel restriction!

I ate eggs after 2weeks. Just call the office or nutritionist and ask

Hi CMSUmom;

I have the diet sleeve guide for a couple of doctors around the nation, including Cornell & Hopkins University. Send me a private message (click on my user name first) and provide your email and I will forward docs to you.

eggs were sort of hard on me, scrambled at first and I still struggle at almost 8 months out. But I can do deviled and egg salad just fine. Hmmm. But good news is, the sleeve works! Best wishes.

Are you on the mushy stage as a scrambled egg to me would count as a mushy. I was on clear liquids for 10 days then full liquids for another 10 days. Once I moved onto mushies I was happy to be rid of the fluids only.

Eggs are hit or miss. I can do a hard egg but get really sick with scrambled eggs. I've tried twice and given up on them for now.

At my two week post op on Thursday, my doc said no, it is a soft food and to wait til week 5. His regimine was pre-op 2 weeks full liquids, post op 2 days clears, almost 2 weeks fulls until I saw him, now on mushies until I see him again on May 26th. I expect then that I will progress to softs.

I was able to start eating liquid eggs as early as 10 days out granted i could take full liquids with no problem. Day 18 now and I love making mini omelettes. (posted my personal omelette recipe in the recipe forum)

Grats on the new sleeve!

Thanks guys for all the suggestions- I went ahead and tried them- made them pretty runny with my soy milk- but it was a no go- so i will wait -

I started eggs at 6 days post-op (yes, the nut. Plan) and I have not had any issues at all.
