What's for breakfast?



Recommended Posts

Lately I have been having slimfast for breakfast. I have other foods but right now I am tight in the morning. Other times I will have oatmeal, trail mix or cheese that is when I am being good.

The pros of having a shake for breakfast is that you are getting that Protein in early and you are keeping your calories down.

:nervous , I'm embarrassed to say, I still don't do breakfast. I did try for a while, right after surgery, probably the first year to get Protein down, but it was too much work.

I've never been a breakfast person, always seemed like a waste of good calories :kiss .

One shredded wheat biscuit with just a little boiling Water to soften it and heat it. That's all I can manage til about 1 pm.

I have a packet of low sugar oatmeal or some fruit. I buy frozen fruit and have it thawed in the fridge all the time. I have also been known to have a sugar free high protien pudding. :rolleyes: Usually it is a cup of hot tea with fat free cream (fake stuff) and a packet of oatmeal. I can't do real solids in the am. When I can it is 2 boiled eggs, diced, with some soy bacon bits. But that's rare for me. ~Mandy

I love breakfast, but since reaching proper restriction, I can only do liquids until lunchtime. So, it is a Protein Shake for me. And I do not get hungry until lunchtime.

Soy cafe au lait and one of the following...

a bite or two of a bagel with lots of cream cheese (the dogs eat the rest)

cottage cheese

drinkable yogurt

Protein drink

Breakfast always has to be a warm drink and then something soft or else I'm sliming for an hour. YUCK!

      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.
