What do you eat for breakfast?



Recommended Posts

So, my pouchy does NOT like Breakfast. Nothing about it other than a cup of Decaf coffee appeals to me or my belly. I ordered some Click Protein, which should be in today. I am praying this will stick because it doesn't even like normal protein shakes.. I can't stand eggs since surgery, so theyre a no go. I've basically been eating cheese and crackers, which doesn't provide enough protein for a meal. :/ My doctor wants me to get more protein than I have been getting, but I can't seem to find any "artificial" protein sources that will hang out in my tummy without having to gag them down.

Have you tried Quest Protein Bars? I have them sometimes for breakfast. Or oatmeal with some unflavored Protein added. For shakes, I drink the Atkins shakes and I mix them in with my coffee.< /p>

I usually always have a Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, usually strawberry banana. Every morning.

Or ometimes I have a couple bites of 50% less fat Corn Beef Hash and about a half of a scrambled egg every once in a while.

I did find these waffles in the freezer section of my store, its Vans Natural food Power Grains Protein waffles.

They are really good. A serving is 2 but I obviously have 1 and its only 90 calories, 2.5 g fat, little high on carbs with 13 carbs, 3 sugars and 5 grams Protein, they are really good.

I can't seem to stomach the texture of Quest bars. They taste just fine, but the texture gets me. Lol I'm so weird about food textures.

Try heating the Quest bars for 15 seconds. Much better.

Everyday I have cottage cheese with chopped nectarines and slivered almonds on top. 15 grams of Protein.

I usually have yogurt. Maybe a mini Babybel? I think you could eat anything if its not " breakfast food" if chicken or shrimp for breakfast sounds good to you do that.

I bought some of the Quest Protein bars because everyone was raving about them. I had to track them down. I tried apple pie... Couldn't do it. The texture is like taffy...I don't know its just weird. Overly processed and it kinda grosses me out

I found Protein bars that are like wafer cookies! 200 calories, 15g protein and only 5g sugar. They're called Power Crunch Protein Energy Bars. This morning I had Peanut Butter fudge.

Haha that's what I had for breakfast this morning. I like the chocolate, but hated the vanilla. I threw it out this morning.

nectar makes a Cappuccino Protein Powder that I mix with a cup of Decaf coffee. The whole packet is 100 cals, 23g Protein and 0 sugar. I mix it with an immersion blender and it froths up like a cappuccino is suppose to. Pretty delicious!

Yes I spread a little butter on it too. I end up leaving a good size piece behind.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
