For some reason since surgery I can't tolerate eggs at all. Comes right back up within 10 minutes. Strange because one day fine, next day not, so I just don't eat them & I'm 6 months out....oh well, maybe one day.

I had that problem for a little bit after surgery, but it went away. Whites never gave me an issue, only whole eggs. It was the one on only food that didn't agree with me, but now its fine.

you haven't said otherwise - so I "assume"?? you are doing well with your eating in general and weight loss these past 3 months???

if the "egg" thing is all that you are concerned about - things are looking ok IMO

i never understood when people would say how they couldn't tolerate egg at all??? :angry:

i eat a scrambled egg and a 1/2 - 3 times a week - yum yum :)

no problem :)

OMG its almost 1:00 am :o

this "chic" has to run :lol:

I've only had slimes once and no throw ups but I don't undereat my sleeve but have been contemplating it. Thanks for this post, I feel better and more normal. Well, normal as possible :D

For lunch today I made one scrambled egg with 1/4 c 2% milk and a peeled apart string cheese. I couldn't finish it. I ate about 3/4 of it though. I say as long as you're not clearing out a dozen at the end of the day, your body is going to tell you what it's ok with and not to worry!

I'm 6 weeks post op and I can barely eat. I can't seem to tolerate eggs at all...but I try to stop b4 I feel that horrible pain..sometimes I can yet other times the pain comes first. I normally don't put more than 1/4 - 1/2 cup food in front of me so I can't over eat.. it helps me to eat like this. Hope that helps others

I was sleeved on 5/23 and can also eat 2 scrambled eggs. I've also been able to eat 3-4 ounces of Protein and not feel stuffed or sick. Just satisfied. Everyone around here has me wondering if I'm doing it all wrong.

My plan was 2 to 3 weeks of just shakes. Hated it. Switched to soft foods about 11 days post op.

Sometimes I'll make two scrambled eggs with 1/2 an ounce of cheddar, and a slice of ham. I can finish the whole thing if I wanted to, but usually I am a little too full if I push it. Generally I'll finish about 3/4 of that and be comfortable...don't worry! Every is different

eggs chew down pretty good, and I wouldn't worry about it

some days I can eat 1 scrambled egg. some days I can eat 1 1/2 and some I can eat 2. it varies.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
