I am 10 weeks Post -Op and still can't eat eggs, cottage cheese bread of any type and barley can eat any meat and if I do get to eat meat I only can eat a couple of bites of a grilled chicken strip only no red meat or pork and then I'm full . I can eat yogurt and a half of a protein shake .I was wondering if anyone else has or had this problem of having a hard time eating at 12 weeks out ? I'm already down 60 lbs which I'm happy about but I would like to get more of a food intake. TYI

Not to ask a stupid question. Have you tried preparing certain things differently? How do you make your eggs?

Oh its not a stupid question ,I prepare them normally with a little butter and crème frese ,then I took that out and made them plain ,also I have done eggs whites and still cant eat them

What do you mean by "can't eat"? Do you get sick/throw up? Or do you mean that you feel full quickly?

Well if it's worth the try, I've had deviled eggs. I'm two weeks post op almost. They go down pretty smoothly. Someone told me not to do a hard scrambled egg because they sit like bricks. I think the red meat thing is pretty common as I hear it takes a while for that. My friend couldn't take it until after a year.

Tried really tender pulled pork, but not too greasy because I heard that can mess up your stomach as well.

I throw up and get very fatigued ,and I also get full after a couple of bites as well .

I will try that to it just gets frustrating sometimes .

I'm right at 4 months out and can't eat eggs. As soon as they touch my tongue I immediately get nauseas. Egg whites go down a little better though.

I hope I can get to 200 in 4 months [emoji7] I would be so happy!

I am two months out from surgery and my instructions are not to add rice and bread until at least 3 months out and not to add beef and pork until at least 6 months out.

Have you tried poached eggs. This is what I had when I first tried eggs and they went down easy.

I try to weigh everything. I usually do about 3 oz per meal.

I'm a little over 6 months out and can no longer eat eggs. They do not sit well with me and I usually feel sick right after eating them. Eggs are the only thing I can no longer tolerate.
