Scrambled Eggs...

Did anyone eat scrabbled eggs during the puréed food stage? They are such a good source of protein and seem like they could be chewed well. I tried them blended and couldn't do it bc of the consistency. :)

Just realized I posted in the wrong thread. Oh well. And, it was disgusting. Made me gag.

I've had scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs, and egg salad in the pureed stage, which I am in now for another 1 1/2 weeks. My doctor combines pureed/soft together for 2 weeks. I chew them up well, and don't have any trouble with them.

I am eight months post surgery and I still can't tolerate scrambled eggs. They sit like a lump all day. Actually, it's a good weight loss plan because I am uncomfortable for the rest of the day! lol

I remember, during my liquids stage, looking forward to that first scrambled egg. And, it was miserable. The good thing is that a hard boiled egg is easy to tolerate!

Well, all of that looking forward to an egg was wasted. lol. My husband made me one scrambled egg this morning after I posted and I started chewing a bite up really good and it just didn't taste good to me at all. I was able to get it all down over an hour, but I think it'll be a while before I try again bc it just wasn't good. I had high hopes mainly bc I am struggling to get in enough protein. I feel like I'm eating all day even though I'm only getting about 10oz of food per day. Just crazy.

I had part of a scrambled egg in puree stage and it didn't go well. Went directly through me (sorry TMI) and I felt terrible. Yet most other foods (fish, mashed potatoes, sweet potato, and canned asparagus ) that I've tried have gone down without a hitch. Wont try the egg again for a while....

my doc didnt have me on a pureed food stage but 4 weeks of soft foods after my 2.5 weeks of liquids.... so eggs were delishous after all that liquid..... I lived on eggs, refired beans , yogurt, chili and noodless lasagna for a month... lol

Tomorrow i will be two weeks post op. On puree for a MONTH! Very restrctive too...no beef, tomato, cheese, etc. Living on refried beans, pureed chicken and tuna. Eggs just aren't working which i think is weird. Scrambled are like swallowing gravel and hurts all the way down. I tried fried today and it burned for 30 mins plus pain in stomach. Scared to try any form of eggs again...for a LONG time!

Scrambled eggs were the first food I ate after I got off of full liquids. And I've eaten them everyday since.

For those of you who don't tolerate eggs, have you tried egg beaters to see if that makes a difference. They are pretty good if you put something with them. I chop up mushrooms, bell peppers and grilled chicken or fajitas in my egg beaters.

Funny, I can eat scrambled eggs and omelets no problem, but gag when I try a hard boiled egg. Used to love them:)

Me too! I have to force myself to eat the egg white. I eat a scrambled egg almost every day :-)
