I sorta had the same problem the other day. Not flying but I was driving a long distance and hadn't planned for lunch. Stopped at the gas station on my way through towns and roamed forever before I found a lunchable. Great gas station choice. I ate the cheese and meat and tossed the crackers. Filled me up with a little to toss out in the next town. I have also bought Jerky, just chew and suck on it a long time. Great Protein choices. Keep up the hardwork. This is so going to be worth it. I already feel so much better.

I'm traveling from Texas to Ohio right now and I stopped at a convenience store and bought a turkey Swiss sandwich and ate the meat, cheese, lettuce, and Tomato. I was only able to eat half of the insides.

Breakfast I found boiled eggs at the store and watermelon.

I love turkey Jerky pieces. I eat 8 pieces. 100 calories and no carbs!! Tons of Protein.< /p>

You're doing great. I haven't been cleared for raw veggies yet, but that is what I am missing most right now. Also haven't been cleared for jerky. Do you find it breaks down easily?

I imagine you'd have to chew for hours (kidding).

The bag I buy has them cut into cylinder pieces about an inch long. I didn't have any issue getting them down. I don't have the bag on me but its like 15+ g of Protein. As for ounces, there's no way it's more that 2.

I'd probably go for the Pork rinds if on a road trip.

That sounds good, haven't been in a situation to go sit and eat.

Just stopped in Illinois at arbys while getting gas. I ordered a kids roast beef. I ate the roast beef (3 slices thin) and calories counter says 70 calories and 8 g of Protein. Ordered a side salad and had 5 small bites with a tiny amount of ranch. Calories counter, 165 total calories and 9 g of Protein. Not perfect but it good for what it is.

sleeved 6/19/13

203 to 160 last time I weighed two days ago.

Size 20 to 12/14 depending on store.

No more blood pressure meds!!

i was sleeved on 6/24 trying to be more creative in what i eat as it is getting a bit boring but I won't do anything i am not supposed to yet. I had to fly today and flight connecting times were tight' date=' so stopped at McDonalds next to my gate, got a cheeseburger - only ate the meat and cheese with some mustard and the onions.

Thanks for Premier Protein - but hard to take when i fly

But what about chicken,,, I have heard so many say they struggle with chicken - why is that? is there a best way to have it?[/quote']

6 weeks out, and I cannot tolerate burgers yet, although I can tolerate strips of steak and lamb in a gyro! Must depend on how it is cooked. I have never had problems with chicken. When I go to mcds I always get one grilled chicken snack wrap with no sauce or lettuce, only cheese.....then I tear away the excess wrap too...I can only handle breads in tiny doses now too.....it tastes good and is high in Protein, low in fat. Good luck!!

Bahahaha...I thought the same thing! I think some of the month groups have gotten organized into FB groups, but maybe us June folks are too lazy or something. ;)

      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.
