I want a scrambled egg!



Recommended Posts

I ate a soft scrambled egg with a little bit of grits on week 4. I know I wasn't supposed to do it but it didn't bother me at all. I mixed some southwestern egg beaters and instant grits together in a blender, poured about a coffee cup full, sat the cup on my coffee cup warmer and ate about 1/2 of it in about an hours time. Hope this helps!! Good luck!

I was eating scrambled eggs by the 5th week. In fact, I still eat one almost every day. They are a good source of Protein and I have always found them easy to digest. One scrambled egg with a little salsa on it is my usual for Breakfast. I bought a tiny skillet and sometimes I will saute a few chopped up mushrooms and green peppers and make a one egg omelot too!

Week 4 was my soft food stage begining and I was able to have eggs. At first, I scrambeled one egg and put some cheese on it. One bite and it was not feeling good. It was like a brick in my throat. I quit and put it in the trash. About a week later, I made another without cheese and I was able to eat about 3 bites and was DONE!! Funny, how little we can eat! I use to eat like 5 eggs!! WOW

Now, I am 9 weeks out and I can eat a whole scrambeled egg w/o cheese and about 3/4 with cheese. I love them but don't overcook them! Make them really soft and not rubbery. They will go down easier and feel better. Just when they first start to look done, shut them off.

I started eating scrambled eggs in week 4. They were odd for me at first, but now they're fine.

I'm 4 days post-op and can have pureed eggbeaters now. I had one earlier today - and well, I think it was a bit too soon. It didn't come back up, but after 3 bites I couldn't eat any more. I think I'll wait a few more days before I try it again.

My doctor approved my having one on day 6 and I ate a few bites and it was fine. I scrambled it like crazy but had no problems with it at all.

When were you able to eat a scrambled egg?

My instructions say pureed scrambled eggs starting the 5th week! And what the heck is a pureed egg? LOL Yuck

Just curious....

HI,

I was able to eat eggs any style by week 3, and I started off with a deviled egg....basically ate the middle and left the white part at first. Now I'm 6 weeks out and can eat one half of a deviled egg with the white too. Um, I'm not too sure about the pureed scrambled egg...ew....lol I can eat about 1/2 of a scrambled egg with cheese at this point :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
