need breakfast ideas



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks out, and just started solid food. Yay for no more mushies!! I am looking for Breakfast ideas as I am getting tired of scrambled eggs. Here's the kicker though....I am only allowed Proteins. My doctor has a strict schedule to follow, and no veggies or carbs yet, and no dairy. What are some other things that you eat for breakfast??

Well I became creative with omelets, by adding crabmeat and Monterey Jack cheese. If you don't like that there is meat loafs, cottage cheese, fish, chicken, chili, there's tons of stuff.

I get sick of eggs too, so sometimes I'll have a small lean hamburger patty, and melt a slice of 2% American cheese on top. I can't eat much in the morning, but for blood sugar issues, I have to eat something. The patty is about 2oz of meat.

Another alternative I do, is have 1/2 Aidell's chicken Apple Sausage with an egg. LOVE that. I get the sausage at costco.....much cheaper than the market.

Mornings that I am home for breakfast I enjoy crustless quiche. There are many creative possibilities for what to add. I add a variety of cheeses and/or meats, and/or veggies.

Most mornings I stick with a Protein shake. Sometimes I will do oatmeal with Protein powder or some sugar free pudding with Protein Powder. Your plan sounds pretty restrictive, does you nutritionist have examples...they should be able to help you out. eggs do get old quick! Good luck!

I am not yet banded but because of all the meds I take I need to eat something in the morning. I'm not a huge breakfast person and the only breakfast foods I really like are all the bad ones. You know, biscuits and gravy or pancakes. So for the past couple of years I eat a can of chicken and noodle Soup for breakfast. I like it, it's not too heavy and it's higher in Protein and low in calories. My point is just because something is not a traditional breakfast food doesn't mean you can't eat it in the morning. Find something you like and wave your magic wand over it. Wa La! It's now a breakfast food in your world.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
