I put some fruit preserves (the 100% fruit kids) in the Greek Yogurt. Otherwise it makes me gag! I have also put a bit of onion Soup mix in to use as a dip for veggies.

I recommend laughing cow cheese wedges with thin triscuits. One wedge and 7 crackers is less than 100 calories. My fave flavors are garlic and herb, chipotle and the Tomato basil.

Hummus stuffed hard boiled eggs. I just halve the egg, remove the yolk, and scoop in hummus.

Apple slices with almond butter.

The rest of my Snacks have already been mentioned. I love love Chobani peach. So good. But if u want to cut the sugar get the plain and add your own fruit or kashi lean Cereal for crunch and flavor.

Hey now! That's a great idea! I love HB eggs but they can get dull day after day. I'm going to the grocery store today and I am making these for tomorrow!

:D

Be careful on some of those yogurts, they can be very high in sugar.

I buy carbmaster from Ralph's and top with some fruit and a little bit of granola.

They come in flavors too, but I don't know how they taste. It is a better option than greek yogurt and not as unhealthy as regular yogurt. Only 3 grams of sugar in the vanilla flavor.

LOVE the CarbMaster yogurts from Ralphs! If you don't have a Ralph's it also may be at Kroger grocery stores too. For 60 calories and 8 grams of Protein it's a great deal. I also add 1/2 cup Kashi go Lean Crunch Cereal and a few chopped strawberries too it.YUMMO!

I snack on smoked salmon and light cream cheese, no crackers. The salmon flakes easily and doesn't get stuck, I just smear some cream cheese on it and YUMMMM! I also like the small flavored cheese wedge with a couple wheat thins. I have also peeled and sliced a cucumber to use as a cracker.

What a great idea! I would have never thought to use a cucumber as a cracker! Great!!! Thanks!

Multigrain Cheerios (dry)~ The Peanut Butter ones are my favorite!

Smoothies~ I usually do these for Breakfast or an afternoon snack.

Apples with peanut butter

Whole wheat toast with peanut butter or nutella

My go to Snacks are as follows:

Cottage cheese--i love it plain!!

Fage 0% greek yogurt--I add a packet of splenda or fresh fruit

Laughing Cow babybel cheese circles

Laughing Cow cheese wedges

Protein bars (Atkins, Pure Protein, Nature Valley*)

Protein Shakes (UnJury, Atkins)

tuna salad with light mayo

String Cheese

sugar free Jello pudding w/ unflavored Protein Powder

Pistachios

Peanuts

Peanut Butter

Sliced lunch meat rolled up with a slice of cheese

Pickled eggs

*-Nature Valley makes a new Protein Bar (10g) and they are crazy good. I tried the peanut butter dark chocolate and they taste like a candy bar to me. It's like cheating, but it's healthy for me.

      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.
