what to eat !!!!

I'm to the pureed stage and it lists scrambled eggs does this mean I have to puree them? Kathy M.

Don't be surprised if you have trouble with any eggs. 4 months outs and eggs are still hard for me to digest. The dietician said the protein in eggs is difficult to break down.. I do better with egg beaters and add some american cheese. Best wishes to you! Keep up with the fluids more than anything!!!! Mel

I dont think you can puree eggs can you..just mush them in your mouth. As for me, I am just over a year out and I just start to eat egg whites...eating the yokes gives me a tummy ache...But I do eat them sometimes..love them.....Good Luck.........Pam

Hi Kathy I had Dr. Ben-Meir also, and I too am still on pureed... you might want to read your book again or call our Dietician Peter Valencic.... I am real sure our book says NO EGGS on pureed..... I would hate to think a mistake could make you sick.... I am not trying to tell you what to do But You Need to Call Cleveland Center for Bariatric Surgery and talk to the Nutritionist/Dietician before you try any eggs hugs, Barbara

Kathy, You probably really want to wait until the soft/transitional stage for eggs, and don't be too bothered if they don't sit well. I ate a lot of soup on the pureed stage but also ate chicken meatballs pureed in tomato sauce with a bit of cheese, some meatloaf, even some chicken stroganoff that I made for the family. I was at least 2-3 months out before I could even stomach eggs and even now I get a touch quease if I eat the whole thing. Otherwise...how ya feeling??? Melissa

Thanks I decided to wait and stick with the soup and jello and protein drinks I think I can wait Two more weeks. Kathy M.

I am pre-op but taking nutrition classes on how to eat after sugery...in phase 2, they are saying liquid eggs (egg beaters) in beverages only...not just cooked and eaten. You should double check wiht your nut. or dr.
