What are you eating?

Yep, I eat salads. I eat a variety of foods. For example, Breakfast is Special K Protein Plus Cereal w/ fat free milk. lunch is usually a turkey breast on a low fat/low carb wrap w/ spinach, fat free cheese and mustard. dinner is usually chicken breast w/ whole grain brown rice and broccoli. In between those I am also supposed to have 3 "mid meals" which are usually either Protein Shakes, a South Beach Protein Bar or maybe a piece of fruit w/ cheese. I don't count calories or measure either. Hope that's what you're looking for.

I drink coffee with Creamer and sweet and low all morning. At 10:45 I have a small banana and half of a smart ones frozen entree. At 3:30 I go to taco bell and eat a pintos and cheese. For dinner around 7pm I have about 3/4 cup of what ever I cook for dinner. tonight I made beef stoganoff with low fat sour cream and whole wheat noodles. Last night I made lamb shanks and roasted potaotes served with steamed broccoli, carrots and snap peas. around 9 I have a sugar free fat free pudding... there are some very nice new ones fudge and mocha, mint chocolate, and dulce de leche! They're only 60 calories. I am not good at getting all my Water in, but I do take my Vitamins and Calcium suppliment.

hello, what brand are you yummy sounding puddings??

I have chocolate instant breakfast heating up like hot chocolate for breakfast and drink it on the way to work..

For lunch, I eat leftovers from the night before or egg salad without the bread, or yogurt...

For dinner I eat about a cup of whatever I feed my family. Stew, homemade chicken Soup, chicken from costco with veggies.

I wonder if I need to eat more.. sometimes I have a snack before I go to bed.. (bad time to eat) but I tell myself it makes my metabolism work during the night..????

I really like to hear what other people have.. I too have a problem with Water and it manifests itself when I have to go to the bathroom.. ow..

Sandranoelle I've found fat free/sugar free Jello at Smiths, Albertsons and at Target. It's Jello brand in a blue box. I've found chocolate, vanilla, butterscotch, banana cream and cheesecake. I'm still looking for the chocolate mint, dulce de leche and cappucino.

sandranoelle...I can't find this darn pudding either!! I have found the sugar-free stuff in the flavors everyone else has listed but it's not fat-free too. The sugar-free is really good. But, if I could find this fat-free sugar-free style, then I'd be all set! Happy searching and wish me luck too! I might see if I can order it from Target because that's where JDru said they sell it. Hopefully, I can order it online!!

      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.
