Recommended Posts

Cream of Wheat, apples n cinnamon oatmeal, fat free yogurt, cheerios and Special K cereals (blueberry is awesome) with skim are some other options I've done. Yummy! Hope this helps!

I have Instant oatmeal every other morning. I also add 1.5 tsp of GenSoy Protein Powder. That adds 13 gr of Protein.< /p>

I like eggs so since I moved to solid food, I have had 1/2 ham, egg, and cheese sandwich. (I use the sandwich thins - whole wheat, 100 cal each) 1/2 sandwich is around 180 calories. I made 2 sandwiches on Sunday evening, cut them in half and had my Breakfast already made for 4 days!

This morning I had a spinach quiche, it was around 250 calories. not the best option but I had a lot of eggs and spinach I needed to use. I've only been on solids for two weeks so I don't have much else to offer.

I like a cliff Protein bar. its like 280 cal but 20g Protein and it helps me get all of my calories in for the day. (some poeple might say that it is too high cal to eat)

Or I cook 2 eggs and eat more like 1.5 or canned tuna mixed with miracle whip, mustard, hot sause and relish. that is like almost 250 calories.

hmmm I kind of don't like breakfast so sometimes I will just have dinner left overs.

I do the Cliff Bars High Protein. (the ones with 20grams) Love the chocolate mint.

I do oatmeal, and Kellogg's Special K Protein--very low carbs for a dry Cereal.

I also love Cream of Rice with a little light butter.

I track all my calories, fat, and carbs but for me, I would rather have a yummy breakfast and then go lighter on lunch and Snacks. I work out mid-morning so eating a good breakfast helps me have more energy when at the gym.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
