Those are good suggestions. I can eat bread and all cereals so often do toast or Cereal, I'm just too afraid of the cholesterol to eat multiple eggs daily, a couple a week is all I eat, if that. I dont like em much anyway.

Yogurt is nice for breakie, I often have a carton as I dont feel very hungry in the mornings and its not too filling. Or I might slice up an apple and eat that while I'm making the kids lunches, so fruit in any form is good too.

Of course my very regular breakfast of 2 or 3 cups of coffee is probably not to be recommended.

I do yogurt or oatmeal. I am pretty tight in the morning and "real food" is usually not an option. I have managed a turkey sausage link here and there but that's not too often. We just returned from Disney and I took Protein Shake mix with me and ordered a skim milk and had a shake. I have also discovered that egg salad works well but is high fat and cholestrol, so I try to avoid it. I have also eaten grits, and the occasional turkey or chicken salad with wheat crackers. Also most places have a "diet plate" usually half a cantalope filled with cottage cheese. Last time I was in Mexico I lived on fruit smoothies and that was preband. ~Mandy

eggs are bad on alot of people. I think you'll find alot of good breakfast options in Mexico. And if all else fails, they always have refried Beans available (they serve them with the eggs anyway, lol).

Have a great time!

Take some can slimfast and put them in your fridge or cheesesticks. If you are tight in the morning have some juice, maybe a sausage. Keep some nuts in your purse for a little later.

Great idea Sarah, refried Beans w/cheese and sour cream...a mushy staple.

If I were you I would try a pancake at home before going out of town to do it. Take small bites and wait to see if it just sits there. :phanvan

I thought you were tight in the morning that is why you were looking for foods for breakfast. LOL:D

Here's a great breakfast:

Take cottage cheese and mix with cinnamon and splenda to taste, then put it on top of toast and eat. YUMMMMM!

My standard breakfast is yogurt these days....but occassionaly skip that in favor of a skim sugar free latte. LOL Some days I have morning star veggie bacon...not sure how long it keeps though once cooked. I sometimes cook it and pack for lunch. It's crisp when cooked in the micowave and generally crisp is no problem. Protien shakes is another good idea. You could always pour them over ice if you don't have a way to keep them cold. I'm going on a cruise in June and already I'm thinking about what I'm going to eat. I'm not sure if its smart planning or just my obbsessiveness! LOL

My morning ritual is Atkins shake when I first get up, then 30 minutes later I have Weight Control Oatmeal. (I love me some oatmeal!)

You should not be able to eat breakfast in the morning. If your band is as tight as it should be, you shouldn't be able to eat until about noon. In the morning I have a Protein Shake and that's about all I can get down. If you are currently able to eat breakfast I would suggest seeing your surgeon about a fill.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
