Pre workout meals

Yeah Fiddle' date=' I love oats! Though I just eat the rolled unsweetened oats myself, but to each his own. It's really just about how they are cut or processed I guess. I also like eating mine dry and uncooked......I spoon it right out of that big Quaker cylinder.....I'm also odd like that.

What? I have never heard that before. Next you'll tell us you just SNORT the Protein powder. You're a bad dude. :)

I ate the Protein Powder raw by the spoonful once. Not a pretty sight. Only needed to do it once after the dry powder caused me to dust everything in close range with a fine dust. :)

Not hardly Butter. :). Perhaps I take the 'no liquids with food' too seriously. It's a little on the dry side.

I haven't been on here in quite some time but got on today looking for some eating before running thoughts. This is great! I'm typically running right after work and often just feel sluggish and like my feet are heavy. My Water intake is pretty good but I think my nutrition is lacking something. I'm actually wondering if I'm lacking the right carbs. One of my biggest issues is finding the time in my afternoon to have a snack with the right timing before the run. I am seeing patients all afternoon so if I get a Protein bar or string cheese in I'm doing well. I'd like to try the oatmeal but I'm just not sure I have time to do that well enough in advance of the run.

Any suggestions for pre run Snacks that I can eat like a half hour before running. I'm allergic to apples but most anything else is fair game. Thanks!

So...I tried a mouthful of oats raw...tasted like eating confetti.

Haha! At first really dry and weird, but I like the oral fixation it helps me to get through by the longest chewing of the oats. :)

      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.
