Hey everyone I hope Friday has been awesome. I am three weeks out and having a terrible time with Protein. Protein Shakes my stomach so bad as well as the liquid whey drinks. I can't handle them. I had a few sips of a Protein Shake at 7 this morn and my stomach still kills. I talked to doc and he says eggs, cheese and yogurt. I said all this just to ask how does everyone cook there eggs? Did you have to purée them? I have never been a huge fan of eggs but I am willing to try anything at this point. Thanks in advance! I hope you all have an awesome weekend!

Try a very soft scramble. They should be shiny and wet looking not dry a crumbly. Add skim milk to the them when you whisk them to loosen them up a bit. You can add a bit if cheese, too!

Refried Beans are good at your stage as is hummus, Greek yogurt, guacamole, cream soups...

I don't have to purée scrambled eggs and I'm on the pureed stage. I'd check with the dr if u are concerned but you should be fine. I haven't tried eggs yet but I'm excited to!

Thanks! I know it's a silly question. I know how to cook eggs but everyone does something different all the time. I am currently about to make home made hummus and I can't wait.

You can make a poached egg or a boiled egg and mash it finely with a fork. At first you may not be able to eat the whole portion. For some bizarre reason scrambled egg made me feel a little sick.. I was ok with the other two options.

I couldn't do a harder cooked white for a long time. In fact, I am just five months and the white of a hard boiled egg still sticks sometimes. I can do an over easy egg now, but that's new to me.

when i was on pureed food, the only way i was allowed to have my eggs was poached or "softly cooked/runny". i wasn't allowed scrambled eggs.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
