I am on day 4 of stage 3. I tried scrambled eggs this morning for the first time. I got through about 1/2 of one egg, and now I am having lots of pain, bubbles and burping. Anyone else struggle with eggs?

Some people struggle with eggs at first. Try using some skim milk to make them flufflier. You will be able to tolerate them better with time.

Thank you! Frustrating because I am having a hard time getting my Protein levels up! I was hoping that eggs would be a good problem solver! Oh well, I will try again in a few days!

I never had any issues with eggs (thank God, because we have chickens, and it would have killed me if I couldn't eat eggs!). The only foods I had an issue with when I first tried them were tuna fish and tilapia. Not sure if they were too dry, or if I ate too fast or what. But now, at 3 months out, I can eat pretty much anything I want. But that's the thing - I don't WANT to eat anything anymore.

I can't have eggs yet on my post-op diet, but yogurt and cottage cheese are high in protein too. So, I've been eating them to help with getting my protein in.

Everyone seems to progress at different rates till they can tolerate different foods. Also, when stating a new food you have to be careful that you are not to excited about it because then you may try to eat it to fast which will make you miserable. Good Luck.

I tried an egg for the 1st time yesterday and I noticed a TON of burping and pressure in my chest. I just tried another one and only got thru 3/4 of it. I think it's because it's the first food that I've tried that wasn't in some way liquidy and so no matter how much I chew, it's still pieces going down, not liquid and with those pieces, goes air. I'm hoping it will go away over time.

I had surgery on Feb 19th and I still cannot eat scrambled eggs, I did try a fried egg and a hard boiled egg & egg salad the other day and I did fine. It doesnt make sense to me but maybe something changes the egg when scrambling. I would try egg in other forms and then every couple weeks try a scrambled egg, thats what im doing. Good luck in your journey :}

Egg salad was a really good meal for me, but scrambled eggs felt a little odd (never was a scrambled fan).

try an over easy or soft boiled. You may be disagreeing with the sulphur. Some do. I burped alot with all food, for quite awhile.

At 5 or 6 days post op I literally sent a text to my mom that said I am never eating eggs again. I tried half of a scrambled egg really puréed chewed extra and ate slowly and for 4 hours after I was in TERRIBLE pain. Burping, gassy, am I gonna throw up pain... I tried to keep it down but it was just not agreeing. Anyways you know what comes next foamies! No fun. My nutritionist told me a lot of people cannot tolerate eggs at the beginning. Sorry that happened but now you know to avoid them for awhile.... Hope your feeling better!

I'm with you mini me. I was sleeved 2/27 and still have some issues with eggs. I've tried adding milk, water, different cheeses. An egg scrambled with American cheese is the easiest but I still can't eat the whole egg. Weird because I can eat salad, steak, basically anything I want. But not a darn egg :/

I never did have a problem with eggs, I started about when you did and I could only eat half. I was thrilled that I could eat so little and feel happy, full, satisfied. Call it whatever you want!!! Take it slow, eat slowly. If they still bother you, wait a week or two and try again. Eggs are a good source of protein, I hope you'll be able to eat them!! Good luck!

I'm 9 months out & still cannot tolerate eggs, which I used to love! I've tried it many different ways & it's a fast & easy way to get your protein in, but for some reason it doesn't want to be my friend - always comes right back up. Oh well. Nothing I can do about it....

My first attempt with eggs hurt as I was sure I could easily eat one . Haven't tried since but I will.

So I'm doing great with eggs now. Scrambled with milk and cheese. Super moist and fluffy. Goes down SO much better than just a regular scrambled egg!
