At what stage did you try an egg? Did you scramble it? Or no? Did it sit well? I'm craving eggs but only in my puree stage still. Advice?

I used to eat eggs in any fashion at least once a day. I can now eat hard boiled, fried over easy, and poached, but I absolutely cannot stomach scrambled eggs. No matter what I try, I just can't do it. And I used to LOVE them. Oh well...????

No problems two weeks post op for me. I was at a restaurant with family. Was nice to have something to chew while they pigged out. LOL

I had a dream last night that a big poached egg was chasing me down the road. I should stop reading the posts about food

I started soft foods at three weeks and I had soft scrambled and it was great. Had it with a small amount of refried beans. It sat very well

Now 8 days post op, I know it's really early but I tried a poached egg and I cut out the yolk part and gave the whites to my dog and JUST ate the yolk part with some salt. Got it down but had a little chest pain ? Lol it was delish tho..

So went to my follow up appt and he was fine with me eating eggs and beans. My family decided to take me to lunch after my appt since I graduated to real food. I had a cottage cheese and tomato salad. Oh that red delicious wonderful fruit how I miss it. Tomatoes I love them and am so happy to be able to eat them again.

Seven day out

I tried it on week 3, purees. I made a really soft scrambled egg with a bit of greek yogurt and shredded cheese mixed it. Best thing I ever had.

On my third week, I had an over easy egg with some shredded provolone and a little salsa. Delish . It was pretty filling though

heres the simple answer, you cant have anything your surgeon didnt tell you was ok. everything else do not listen to. no one here is your surgeon and cannot give that advice.

Stick to the plan. you can and will make it happen.!

Agreed. Eggs were allowed for me in the purée stage but you should follow YOUR doctor's advice

As noted above, go with what your surgeon's plan permits - that's what you (or your insurance.....) are paying for. On my doc's plan, I was served scrambled eggs in the hospital (not my favorite form though,) and had boiled eggs the first week home.

What quantity did you start with? 1 or 2 eggs? Not sure what will fit but curious what others eat.

I couldn't eat a whole egg when I started out. Maybe 2/3 of an egg. I still can't eat 2 eggs and I am over 2 years post-op.

I tried egg during the puree stage-3 weeks..i only was able to eat one though...
