I have been eating a hard boiled egg and low fat mayo and 1 melba toast for lunch and dinner for the last 5 days.. Usually i can get it all in but ive noticed the last few days i am unable to finish the whole egg. I loose the desire to fini**** after the first few bites, i push to eat a few more then i am no longer wanting any more..

Just wondering if this is a normal part of the journey? I am 2 1/2 weeks post op.

Hey Chanelle!

You are still healing..... I wouldn't suggest pushing to fini**** Some days more fits in than others....just listen to your body. :)

Perhaps your body is saying it has had enough eggs for now. Switch it to something else. Or try poaching the egg. I have found there are some days I just can't look at an egg and others I'm fine

It`s a new world - now you can get bored with food, not want to finish, and have to tempt yourself to eat. It is wonderful.

Also, I envy you the eggs.

As you heal the nerves heal and you get your "full sensation" back. If you feel full, stop. I know it took me about 6 weeks before I could eat a whole egg.
