Im a bit concerned over so many people saying they can only fit 1 egg or less for Breakfast. Im 3months out and I eat 1 and 1/2 to 2 eggs with deli slice ham. Most days is 1egg and the other just the egg white but still..... Am i the only one that is eating this much??? Bit scared here.

I have two eggs a couple of times a week for breakfast. I don't have anything with them except maybe a grating of padano sometimes.

Relax :)

I wouldn't trip about that! I was able to eat 1 egg and cheese the very first day I was allowed! I'm now 4 months and can eat more. If that freaks others out? Oh well... it's a nice normal amount and that's what we are supposed to do! I've seen the people say "oh my! that's to much"

"I only eat a bite and I'm stuffed for days"

That's not me...

Now if you came here and said girl I can eat 1 whole layer cake then we would be talking problems!! But you are eating normal.

Yeah when I told my NUT I could eat 2 eggs she almost spased out! I try to stick to whites, but I can eat 2 eggs, but I would not eat anything else with that. I think I can eat more than most and it worries me!

I can eat 1 egg, 1 white and 2 morningstars. Did so this am. If you chew well and don't drink with it. it isn't hard.

Keep in mind, just because we can, doesn't mean we should. I was advised to under eat the sleeve, meaning, since we don't feel real hunger, stop before we get that full feeling that is sooooo miserable. Or maybe I'm the only one that can have the stuffed feeling sneak up and bite me!! :)

I can't eat a whole egg, but I hate eggs and have to force every bite down lol. After a couple days I quit torturing myself and ate yogurt instead...which is the less of two evils lol

Thank you very much, I think I can handle it. I've been doing this for a while now, and I can pretty much know when I am full.

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.

Shoot, you're welcome and you're doing better than me. If I'm eating out, I'll get to visiting and all of a sudden, I feel horrible....and I've been doing it for 3 years! Then there I am, in the passenger seat, laid back and salivating!!! I have not thrown up, but a couple of times, I was wishing! Maybe one of these days I'll know I need to pay more attention! At home I weigh and measure, it's easier for me.

      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!!
