Suggested to my husband we go out for Breakfast this morning after my 3 mile walk at the lake (beautiful morning) He has not had a "really good meal" since my surgery on Sept 19th. He's one of these that can eat whatever and still not gain weight. Anyway, he really enjoyed it and so did I. I am still in the mushie stage and ordered 1 egg with a small bowl of grits and estimated my allowed 4 oz and ate more egg than grits,and mushed it right on up :) It was really good! -Feeling blessed!

I also had my surgery Sept 19th. I am not ready to brave the venturing out to eat yet being on the mushy phase. I know the day will come soon, but I would like to get past the mushy phase first. Keep up the great work!

I cannot eat breakfast...and have not for almost 3 years now.....I do go out with my Wife for breakfast, but I will just drink coffee and maybe nibble on some toast....

As the day goes on it becomes easier....so I can eat a late breakfast, say around 10am, but even then not a lot of food...still early in the day.

My Wife fully understands, and is happy I am thin and healthy.....and still alive....

I actually do not enjoy eating out anymore. I can prepare better quality food at home without hidden junk in 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.
