I never had problems with eggs, but I do know it's pretty common. Most people can eat them eventually, though

When I first started with eggs, I added an 1/8th of a cup of low fat cottage cheese to my scrambled eggs (when they're almost finished cooking). It keeps them from getting too dry/difficult to swallow.

Nearly one year post op and still can't eat eggs. Scrambled, fried, hard boiled. Loved them pre surgery but now they make me nauseous.

I tryed eggs a week ago and i wasnt ready for it ,pain in my chest felt funny and hurt so i waited a week and tryed it again and now my body is fine with eggs. I tryed making deviled eggs the other day grosses thing i ever ate post sleeve. The taste of eggs and cheese is funny tasting i dont think i will be eatting anymore anytime soon. I loved eggs before so hoping my taste buds change back eventually.

In the early stages, if I ate an egg it felt like I ate a rock...no matter how it was cooked! I'm fine with them now.

My plan had us start out on egg beater only (basically yellow egg whites in a carton) for the first 2 weeks of soft stage. After one week and no problems I called and asked (begged) if I could have real eggs. They said go ahead, just go slow. I was never so happy to have an egg before.

Maybe egg beaters will be tolerated easier for you.

I ate my first scrambled egg yesterday. (I had egg salad on week 2 and did fine). I didn’t have any problems with the scrambled eggs. However, I couldn’t finish the whole egg—I got full. I just made sure to chew mine extra good. My dog enjoyed my leftovers. Lol

eggs sound sooooo good right now. I’m on liquids for 3 weeks and tomorrow makes a week.

It tasted amazing but I was super careful to take the tiniest bites and chew like crazy. I also have been lucky with a smooth recovery and likely less swelling than some experience.

Today I barely scrambled 1 XL egg and could only handle half of it within a 20min setting. It was an interesting experience.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
