a.walker 2 Posted October 29, 2010 I know sausage and bacon have lots of fat in them, but I occasionally have that for breakfast. I like to have an omelette or some eggs sometimes too. If I'm going to work, I usually just have a Protein Bar, because I never give myself time to make something. If you like eggs, you might like eggface's bites. It's a woman who has a blog all about cooking after gastric bypass, and she has some bites, which are like mini-quiches. I love them. They freeze well, too, so if you need something on the go. Here's her website, and specifically all her "bites" recipes: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2009/10/party-time-confetti-bites.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexasT 99 Posted October 29, 2010 I eat a cup of Activia cherry yogurt with some hot tea. Then I snack on a 30gram Protein bar until lunch.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted October 29, 2010 I've had a Protein Shake for breakfast since the day I was banded which will be 4 years ago this Dec. I am just not hungry in the mornings, and have never been a breakfast eater. This way I am sure I am starting the day out with a good amount of Protein. Some days I will have half of a costco protein bar instead because they are very big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Globetrotter 1,340 Posted October 30, 2010 I start the day with serious protein; a whey Protein shot and two turkey-cream cheese roll ups, followed by a tablespoon of Peanut Butter for energy. Of course, my options are limited in my environment. If I were home and had a leisurely morning, I would have some kind of wonderful herb & veggie scramble with gooey cheese and some kind of protein. I wish there was a low carb oatmeal but I think that is a contradiction in terms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NtvTxn 1,262 Posted November 22, 2010 Ok... all you old pros... that is people more than 4 weeks out. What the heck do you have for breakfast??? I sometimes have eggbeaters but that is gettin' really old. Any Protein rich good stuff out there? Help Cottage cheese, the breakfast of champions!! A half cup (when you are able to eat that much) is 13 grams of protein!! Get 1% - when you get tired of just cottage cheese, add a few slices of light Syrup peaches, or fresh berries. It's yummy! I also will scramble and egg and add a half oz of Farmers Cheese (it's made with skim milk) - or 2% cheddar. Or maybe an egg and a slice of turkey bacon. I always start my day with a 8 oz cup of skim milk so I'll get Protein right off the bat and I END my day with the same!! I hope this helps! Good luck!

*susan* 1,709 Posted November 23, 2010 I have never been a big breakfast eater, plus, I am always running late and really don't have time to make a big breakfast. Most of the time I have a Protein Shake or a Protein bar. I finally found one I really like, which is the Shakeology protein shake. They have a chocolate one that is really rich in flavor, kind of like a liquid hershey bar. It doesn't have as bad of an aftertaste either. If I do eat actual food for breakfast, it is usually just Peanut Butter on toasted whole wheat bread.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
