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.

I am two weeks out- can I start eggs?

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

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.

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. :D (posted my personal omelette recipe in the recipe forum)

Grats on the new sleeve!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
