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.)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
