I had 2 oz of Boars Head Honey Ham slices. Cut 1/2 oz slice of Swiss cheese in half and rolled it up inside the ham to make 2 ham n cheese rolls. Quick and easy and goes down very well.

Wow I feel like I eat so much more than what everyone listed. And I feel like I eat all day long...I'm 11weeks out and down 42lbs. A little disappointed but better than nothing. Today I've had a hard boiled egg' date=' 4oz of chicken salad with celery stalks, 4 pieces of beef Jerky, 1/2 cup of dry granola, 3 or4 pineapple chunks and I'll probably eat something else before the nights over because I just got back from Zumba and I'm always hungry after that. Am I doing too much? I've not really been sick except a couple times(eating too fast I think). Just feel like I should be eating less...

That all equals 934 calories and 60g of protein[/quote']

Wow I'm impressed that you are only 11 weeks out and can get in so many calories. i am almost 9 months out and can't even get in 800 sometimes!

I think you are talking about your daily intake. I am working to maintain and I eat 2000 calories a day and have been successful for the last 3 months at this pace. (This is JUST FOR ME, I'm not educated in this field.) I personally only listed what I ate for lunch. If I told you everything I ate yesterday you would get bored real quick because it is a long list. I feel like I eat constantly too and I worry about "grazing" like it's my job!! What I'm trying to get at is you're probably OK and you shouldn't stress when comparing what others have listed here on this thread. Any concerns about if you're "OK" or not should be taken up with your doctor or nutritionist. As I said we were only talking lunch, not all day food intake. Hope that makes you feel better! :)

I'm allowed to have iceberg but have been sticking the fresh greens & spinach. NUT said iceberg is hard to digest for some...just not ready to test it out ;-}

Working nights makes dieting harder...I usually sleep through lunch or dinner depending on when I go to bed. Need to get myself on a better sleep schedule...trying to prep myself for vacation and surgery. I'm just thankful that being a lap band patient currently I have the eating right down pretty good.

      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.
