Chobani Greek Yogurt - thick/filling, lots of Protein, non-fat, and decently low-cal...I like the vanilla, peach, blueberry and strawberry.< /p>

Jimmy Dean has fully cooked turkey sausage patties that are delish!! And you get two of them for 7 grams of fat 120 calories and 13 grams of Protein. I love that with eggs and a small amount of potato and salsa. Grits are delish too, or a small amount of Cereal w/skim milk. Zone Perfect's Protein Bars are really good too. Do you like yogurt? Honey flavored Greek yogurt with a spoonful or two of granola and fresh strawberry is to die for!! :) Whatever you choose just enjoy it while you can, I have been having problems since my last fill about a week ago. I can't really get anything down in the mornings except liquid so I have been drinking smoothie King smoothies. I miss my grits and eggs already!! :smile2:

It's not a breakfast food but I love it. I take canned chicken breast and chop it up real fine add olive oil mayo and mustard. 4 oz is about 160-180 cals and has 26 grams of Protein. If i feel I need more I add a couple of crackers and maybe some mozzarella cheese. It is a great protein breakfast.

I like to eat 1/2 cup of cherrios or Fiber one (both 100%whole grain) and a serving of canadian bacon. About 150 cals and 15 grams of protien. Sometimes I add 1/4c of strawberries or blueberries.

I add stuff to my eggs, different each week, and often do egg salad also. Usually I can only have a Protein drink for breakfast, but sometimes save scrambled eggs from Sundays for Monday/Tuesday lunches.

Scrambled eggs with 2-3 of the following:

thin sliced ham or turkey chopped

diced onions

diced green peppers

blended or whisked cottage cheese

shredded cheese

pre-cooked potatos (ie left overs)

chopped tomatos

I don't usually get tired of eggs this way, but also can't always eat much or swallow too early in the morning

Usually I have a choc Protein Shake with maybe some Peanut Butter and frozen banana slices in it. Mix it up with a little bit of ice to make it nice and cold. Then about a hour and a half, two hours later, I have either some yogurt with some flax seed in it or some steel cut oatmeal with a little bit of peanut butter in it. YUMMY. I love the oatmeal.:biggrin:

I have never been a breakfast eater, and have never liked yogurt, but I FINALLY found something that I LOVE!

I buy "carbmaster" yogurt, Kroger brand, from the grocery store. It is 80 cals and 12 grams of protein! I buy the vanilla flavor...

THEN, the best part, I buy fresh cut berries (strawberries, black, blue, and raspberries, pre-cut...NOT frozen!), and mix that into the yogurt with about 1/3 cup of low-fat granola cereal.

It is so wonderful! Sweet, filling, and HEALTHY!

I actually now prefer this "treat" for not only breakfast, but if I want dessert too. It's the only way I found to eat breakfast. The fresh berries are the key....frozen made me want to gag.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
