​I used to have an omelet with all kinds of veggies for breakfast every day , now I have tried scrambled, over easy and the smell and the taste almost make me sick. I threw up the scrambled and only got 2 bites of the over easy down. has anyone else had this problem with eggs? They have always been a staple in my diet and I loved them. No problem with cholesterol 144 so Dr, says go for it!...Please tell me if you have had similar experiences . thanks Divagirl23

I never had an issue with eggs, but I've heard it's very common early out. You may want to wait a while when you're further out and try again.

That is amazing how well you have done!! good for you girl..any recipes or secrets for the stage 3 diet???last night I had refried beans with mashed potatoes on top and it was delicious!. is the a websitr with recipes???I am very excited.I have lost over 100 lbs. 5 or 6 times and gained it back....so I am all in and am open to any suggestions anyone has for my new journey. Thanks for the response Babbs

Add a splash of milk and a pat of butter to your wisked eggs and then scramble them really soft, almost runny. When they are cooked too "well". they hit my 2.5 year out tummy like a brick and I usally horf them back up. If they are really wet, I can not only eat them, but they are extremely satisfying and filling.

The added butter is the trick along with the soft cook.

I made mine really soft, almost custard consistency. I added a tsp of greek yogurt and a tiny bit of shredded cheese then cooked over a low heat stirring frequently. The softness of the eggs made them perfect for the soft foods stage. I then added chopped spinach and other veg as I got further along. Never had an issue with them. 3 mths out I went to iHop and was able to order a vegetable omelet no problem. I still could only eat 4 bites, but it didn't bother me.

Soft eggs really gag me...just reading your posts made my stomach roll. I really only like omelets with veggies. Not a big cheese eater .I may have to wait till I can have sautéed veggies...when will that be??? Thank you tho

I would think within the next month you should be able to have sauteed veggies if they are soft enough, but that's a good question for your surgeon or NUT if you have one.

What about chili or Soups? Have you tried those? Also, I love The World According to Eggface's blog. She has a lot of great recipes for each stage! Here's a link to some of her soft food recipes:

eggs make me barf, pretty much every single way I have tried them. I also used to like them in an omelette with veggies and sometimes over easy with a piece of toast. Nope, puke. I'm at 2 years and still can't tolerate egg.

thank you both for your suggestions.Right now I am eating refried beans with mashed potato on top and a dollop of FF sour cream...tastes great!

Depends on your system. Check with your nutritionist to be sure. Try a ricttota bake. Basically the filling for stuffed shells topped with cheese and tomato sauce baked in a ramekin. Good Protein and filling. If your NUT allows it, chopped sauteed spinach is one of the easier veggies to take in at first. Spinach is also a good source of Vitamins & Fiber with a bit of protein to boot. Also you can swap out plain greek yogurt for sour creme. I prefer FAGE 0% greek yogurt. It's less fat than regular sour cream and a nice bit of protein.

I'll have to get some ricotta cheese and try that ...Thank you!
