Trouble with Eggs



Recommended Posts

Hi There!

Anybody else have trouble with eggs? I have tried them twice, both times left me hanging over the throne. I'm wondering if it will always be this way...

I have had eggs a few times. Scrambled with salsa for added moisture. No problem. Maybe add something for more moisture?

Our nurse suggested we not even try eggs till 5 weeks. She said it's not uncommon to not tolerate them at first.

eggs use to be a key staple of mine pre-surgery, but I'm two years post and simply can't tolerate them or have much of a taste for them any longer.

Oh man, I love eggs, hope I don't develop an aversion for them!

Me too!

I read somewhere that scrambled might be more difficult than other forms so keep in mind boiled, poached etc

I defintly can't do eggs. I have had a boiled egg in my salad and did ok there. I can eat a deviled eggs like maybe 1/2. But it all depends on my "PRISSY POUCH". If I can keep them done or not. In fact my hubby made deviled eggs yesterday and I just could not bring myself to try them. :( :(

I am over 4 years post-op RNY gastric bypass surgery and I eat one scrambled egg for Breakfast each morning. My surgeon's office did not recommend eggs until week 5 post-op. So after week 5, I tried to eat eggs, but it didn't go so well at first. But a few weeks later, they became good.

I love eggs: have had them scrambled, fried, and poached. No issues other than that I can only eat one at a meal, not two as I formerly did.

I buy fresh chilled egg whites ... about the same price for 500g (500mL) as for 500g-600g of eggs.

They are high Protein, low fat and they mix well into smoothies or Protein Shakes.

Just curious, has anyone tried eating a 6 minute soft boiled egg with about 1/2 tsp of butter melted into it?

Thank you for all your input. I think I will put off trying them for a while longer, and when I do, add some moisture (salsa, sauce, etc.)

      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!
