Jimmy dean makes.some.bfast bowls that have 21-28 grams of.protien and not a ton of calories. My Dr recommended them for me n a few weeks once I can eat all that is in them.....maybe one of those and.a Protein shake is always a good option....hrm tuna salad would keep.for a day or.so

i assume you have a fridge or cooler at work, so try this. All our meals are diabetic friendly (hubby is diabetic , but is slim and doesnt like sweets, go figure ) so we cook a diabetic friendly dinner and we both take the leftovers for lunch each day, then do it again the next night, etc. that way we are always eating healthy. I eat something healthy for Breakfast, ( ideas- Protein Shake, hb egg, 1/2 banana, 1/2 apple, turkey Jerky, almonds, Protein Bar etc .) for dinners we cook fish, chicken, ground turkey, some red meat, ( and my favorite, Bruce Aidells chicken teriyaki pineapple meatballs) etc. Add lots of veggies, fruits and salads and were eating good. Give a Diabetic cookbook a try, or go on line for recipies. Good luck !

      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.
