Tonight is my first meal. I made 1/2 egg with a 1/8 slice of cheese. It took me a half of an hour to take 2 tiny bites (with a baby fork), chew it to mush and swallow. Now I feel queasy. Is that what full feels like? My paperwork says a portion should be around 1/4 of a cup. I managed less than a tablespoon. Anyone else experience this?

I was still on liquids at that point, so I would suggest not pushing it. I couldn't eat a whole egg til about 5-6 weeks

Some people have problems with eggs in the beginning. I know when I add cheese to my eggs it seems to make them more filling.

You will be able to eat more further out. In the beginning, when you try a food if it doesn't agree with you, wait a week or so and try it again. Sometimes your stomach is not ready for it even though your diet sheets say you can have it. You may also have internal swelling from the surgery.

You will be able to take in a larger amount soon.

Good luck.

I'm day 17 had a scrambled egg w/ cheese today and lost it! Went back to shake. Bought some Bob Evans mashed potatoes going to try a small amount later ? First time I've been sick with my sleeve.

I am on day 16.... My thought for the day is " Never trust a fart" Still doing Protein shakes, yogurt, Jello, and clear chicken broth... I did add 3 saltine crackers to my broth, they mushed up in the hot Soup and boy did that taste GOOD!...Good luck everybody :)

There's a recipe for egg custard on bariatriceating that I've been making weekly. It's delish and I can eat it unlike scrambled eggs still.

eggs were one of the hardest things for Frankensleeve to digest. At the 2 month mark, I was still only eating about 4oz. total for the day. Just be sure and stay hydrated.

Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve!

I would say you should still be on liquids based on everything I know and read, at 2 weeks. Don't rush it please. Bad results when you try things too soon.. Best wishes!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
