EGGS omg what happened?



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 months post op. I can no longer eat eggs. OMG wth?

Pre op, I lived on eggs-one of my favorite things to eat. For me pre op diet, I ate them 2-3x a day; every way including just egg whites.

So now. As soon as a bit hits my stomach, I'm in pain. Then they give me gas.

Bye bye eggs. I miss you :(

Anyone else experience this?

Yeppers! I can't even smell eggs anymore. Doesn't matter how they're cooked. They make me so sick every time.

LOL I'm just the opposite !! I was not a big fan of eggs before surgery now I love em' I'm glad because they are a good source of Protein and low in fat and calories. I cannot eat meat now...just a big turn off post surgery but I can do seafood. I think we all have some tradeoffs with this surgery !!!

That was the first thing to make me puke and I puked for a couple hours. I tried them again several months later and just on a salad then a while later scrambled again and it went ok. Give it some time and try again, it might be a food that is a no-no

My first post op meal was eggs and I puked so bad that I was afraid of them for months. I can eat them now tho.

Isn't it weird? I just am angry about it because I NEED the Protein from them.

I'm 43. I've had favorite foods my entire life. After surgery, I have not had one craving NOT ONE! I also have little to no appetite and could care less if I eat something for 'survival' vs 'taste'. My favorite foods don't matter to me one bit anymore.

I've never liked sea food. I am wondering if I should give it another try. I WISH I liked lobster - maybe I might now. LOL

I loved eggs pre-op but now ... I can't bring myself to touch them. It's so sad. I can only stomach them if they're masked in foods.

I get it Cherry. My Fav foods are not my Favorite anymore, not because I dont like it, because it's more of a "I don't get excited anymore." I guess the RNY forced me to have a "eat to live, not live to eat" mentality so I look at food in terms of nutrition now. For instance, when I see a piece of chicken, I'm like "Oh that's a big piece of Protein right there!" lol

I can't even finish a hard boiled medium egg. I get BAD stomach pains that eventually turns to a full/discomfort feeling that last forever. And then turns to gas. I have stayed away for a longtime. Never understood how I can eat 1/2 of something could eat more if I tried. And can't finish a medium egg??! Weird!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
