I started doing this awhile back and then kind of forgot. Anyone want to share what they're eating? You might note what type of diet you're on (WW, Atkins, low carb/low fat, low carb/high fat, etc.).

B: 1 egg cooked in .1 oz butter, 2 slices bacon

L: Chefs salad made with romaine lettuce, 1 oz chicken, .5 oz shredded cheese, .5 oz crumbled bacon, hard boiled egg and 2 Tbs homemade full fat blue cheese dressing

D: 4 oz poached cod loin drizzled with lemon pepper butter, 1 c. brussel sprouts

Snack: SF Jello with .5 oz whipped cream

Diet: Atkins - 900-1200 calories depending on whether or not I'm hungry that day. 20-30gm carbs. 60-70% fat.

B: Protein shake, coffee

L: 2 ounces of turkey, one slice of cheese and pretzel crips

S: coffee with Protein

D: 3 ounces of tilapia, 2-3 spears of broccoli and a tablespoon of hummus

Maybe I am not eating enough.... I don't follow any diet. I just focus on protein and make sure I see a veggie on a daily basis. But as I posted on my blog yesterday, I am worried that I may not be eating enough. I ran 3 miles this morning and had to have burned at least 400 calories.... I just don't want to be fixated on food anymore... where's the balance...?

I am only on week two but for supper tonight I was craving black eyed peas. I put a can in a pan and added some tyson chicken that comes precooked in a bag. After it was hot, I put it in my blender and added a little bit of salt and pepper and 2 tablespoons of salsa. then I poured some in a little bowl I eat out of that is about the size of a baby food container and I added a couple of dashes of hot sauce and a pinch of sharp shredded cheese. I feel like I am in heaven it is so good.

Nothing wrong with oatmeal :) Unless you're eating the instant kind, then yeah all the good nutrients are gone. Look for rolled oats and steel cut oats. I eat oatmeal everyday now and love it!

      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.
