Hi!! 10 months out, my favorite breakfast is

Southwest egg beaters 3tbsp scrambled with 1/4c Jimmy dean turkey sausage crumbles. Sometimes I put 1tbsp of salsa on top. Sometimes I put some shredded cheddar cheese.

Lunch-soup!! I love curried red lentil Soup. Or cabbage beef soup. I work in a hospital that has 2 great Soups for lunch everyday.

Snacks-think thin bars, pure Protein canned Cookies and cream shakes, Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, turkey Jerky, almonds

Hope this helps

I had mine back in September, I am down to 168 and I went thru the same thing. I have found for breakfast I do some of the following to get the best bank for the buck.

Breakfast

Dry Cereal I then to do the Kashi or the nut ones to get the added Fiber

I do sliced cucumbers with a little Greek yogurt--this is good for added Water

Sliced fruit works well in frozen yogurt

Snacks

I do the trail mix, baby cheese, pistachios, and best of all for the sweet craving yogurt covered raisins

For the Water if you are really having trouble getting it down try drinking it at room temperature, my DR told me that the best way to get the most out of it. Cold water is only absorbed about 20% where warm is more around 60%. Also try freezing fruit and things like cinnamon or mint in a ice cube tray for your water to add flavor without the extra sugars

      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.
