My VSG is scheduled for January 7th, 2019. I have to get it done before school starts up, which is January 14th. Is anyone else celebrating getting a surgery date like I am!?

I find soft poached( slightly undercooked ) works best for me

I was going to try eggs tomorrow. Now I am scared. ?

I have been lucky so far that things are going so well I don’t want to throw up!

Tell me about it, I don’t think I wanna try eggs again for awhile. Maybe an isolated event but yuck ?

Omg I just threw up my first time I only had mashed up tuna and mashed up boiled egg like 3oz and threw it all up. My first sensation was uncomfortableness, excessive salvia and the overwhelming need to throw up. Sorry tmi I just never experienced it until now yuck ?

Oh my, I hope you feel better. I am 15 days post op- RNY. I get the the tightness in my chest and back too. I found if I take even smaller portions of and already small portion it helps with preventing this. Almost half of a bite. I know it sounds crazy but it works very very very tiny bites. Hope this helps you!

When I try eggs I mush them and make sure to not scramble to hard. Small small pieces, if not i feel pain but have never had the throwing up experience or nausea.

Thank u! I mashed them to almoSt dust and my stomach didn’t want to take it, but next time I’ll eat half of that as u suggested and see thank you

I find pouched very soft works for me

I'm 17 days post-op and I just recently tried fish. I'm thinking everything okay but I felt a little sick ten minutes later. I'm really not sure what fullness feels like now??

I’m 16 days post op. I had fish today for lunch and threw up afterwards for the first time since the day of surgery. I dunno if the fish didn’t set well on my tummy or if I had one bite too many... but I think I’m gonna avoid fish for a while. Had chicken Soup for dinner and did fine. I also am kind of struggling to determine my new “full feeling.” My tummy still generally feels uncomfortable most of the time, so it’s difficult for me to distinguish a difference at this point.

Do you measure or weigh your food?

I can tell if I am getting full ... I sort of feel a tightness or just the need to take a deep breath. Then I know I need to stop. I’m only 11 days post op now so who knows if it will change

Fullness feels the same to me as it did before surgery, it just happens a lot faster. If I eat too fast and am getting full I burp a lot.

I feel uncomfortable and like I can’t breathe tightness. Idk if the egg didn’t sit well or I ate a bit to many. But I eat out of a 3oz container and still leave food. That day I wanted to finish so it could of been either one or both. I’ll stay away from egg for a while and then re try.

Please do let me know when you figure it out.

Eggs sit like a ton of bricks on my stomach. It hurts even to swallow one or two bites. I tried mixing them with cottage cheese which makes them softer but that didn't help. I have decided to give them up for now.

I was going to try eggs today but at chickened out Lol

maybe next weekend I will try them...
