Hey, all responses are VERY welcome and much appreciated, thank you. :) The more ideas I have about successful presentation of the eggs, the more likely I'll find one that sits okay. Poached.. mmm... on toast with loads of butter... D'oh! No bread! Waaaaaaaah! :'(

Ooh, actually, whilst here, I'll cheekily ask another question. Have any of you lot attempted sausages? If so, how did that work out for you all? x

Very well as long as it was chicken sausage. Now I did homemade ones but you can approximate those with no casing on store-bought ones. My husband made ground chicken and we sausaged it up in different flavors like bratwurst, Thai chicken etc and that worked great.

However, hot dog at the baseball game, made of beef and full fat that I had Sunday? Made me sick. And nothing has really made me sick.

A lot of people say they have trouble with pork. So if pork and beef are iffy, try chicken ones to start maybe?

chicken sausages.. It'll be like returning to the middle east! Hey, a sausage is a sausage and I'd be grateful for any variety as I love them so much! i wasn't really thinking the hotdog variety as I've never really gone for them. Definitely the bratwurst variety though.. They are delicious!

Do you find anything with a high fat content now throws your tummy off?

I haven't tried anything high in animal fat except the frankfurter yesterday. The highest fat thing I've had has been 1/4 of an avocado at a time and that didn't make me sick. But I think that high fat will make me sick. Don't ask me how I know but I took 2 bites of the hotdog and turned if my husband and said, "will this make us sick?" Instinctively I knew it wasn't good for me. Of course I ate it! Oy. Upset tummy!

Did you have it in the hot dog roll, or just the hot dog on its own?

Oh man, I've been a unhappy for the last two days after having scrambled eggs and lean Italian chicken sausage. Had a small portion Sunday night, spent the night feeling stuck and queasy. Tried again for lunch Monday, and they were outright rejected.

I still have the sore throat. Bleah.

Just the meat. I hate commercial white bread, haven't eaten the pasty stuff that burgers and hot dogs come in for years. If I'm going to eat bread, it's going to be GOOD bread, not that stuff! :). But yeah no bread for me until I hit goal I think.

For me, the secret to eggs during the mushie stage was to 'soft' scramble them. Leave them loose and wet. I also added a bit of shredded cheese for flavor. If they were hard scrambled, or hard boiled they sat like a rock. Good luck!

Yeah, my husband is unable to grasp the idea of "soft" scrambled eggs. The birk. Oh wait, I guess I could cook them ... Nah.

I have found (Pam) fried eggs over medium will slide down my stomach well. I haven't had any problem. I can eat a full one now--with maybe one cracker to soak up the rest of the yolk :x Scrambled eggs tasted...different to me for some reason :/

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
