Ideas needed for Breakfast



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

Starting out now slowly on real foods. My doctor told me that he wants me to eat mushy foods and some solid foolds to see how I do with them. I'm torn on what to eat for Breakfast. Any ideas?

I always do well with my standard breakfast:

Morning Omelette

3 ozs egg beaters. 50 calories

2 pinches of low fat cheese. 80 calories

2 ozs of crumbled turkey sausage. 80 calories

diced onions and red peppers. 15 calories

225 calories depending on how much cheese and sausage you add.

I've never got stuck on this recipe and it is very satisfying. I sometimes add some salsa if I'm feeling frisky :P

Yogurt is good in the morning you can add some blueberries or any soft fruit if you have to eat soft food. When you can do regular food you can try adding granola, if you let it sit for a few minutes it softens up too.

That naked smoothie looks different! I might have to try that. Thanks!

I like oatmeal and used to eat it before the band. Haven't tried it yet, but I hope to soon!

I always have to eat animal Protein for breakfast. Actually, at every meal, but if I don't have it first thing in the morning, my blood sugar totally whacks out. That said, eggs are a daily occurrence :-) When I get sick of over easy, scrambled, scrambled with a little bit of 2% milk shredded cheddar......I make egg salad. I use Hellman's Low Fat mayo, and it's GREAT!

When I'm sick of eggs all together, I'll make a small turkey or hamburger patty. Sometimes, I'll have a 2oz patty with an egg on top. SOMEtimes I'll make an egg taco. I did that this morning with a corn tortilla, scrambled egg and a slice of Kraft American cheese (45 cal). Total calories - 195.

Then - when I can't face any of my breakfast options, I'll have a Protein shake :-)

Catfish - how much Protein is in the Naked smoothie?

That one is only 4g per bottle, but some of them go all the way up to about 30 grams of Protein per bottle. there are some with about 200 calories, going up to almost 400 calories per bottle so you probably have to use them as a Meal Replacement. I really like the flavor of some of them. but the ones with higher protein tend to taste like liquid chalk to me. they are not where I get my protein from

Personally I like to keep it simple if I have breakfast at all. A hard boiled egg or a 1 oz. chunk of extra sharp cheddar.

      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.
