Jeez guys, I haven't even had Breakfast yet, stop rushing me! ;-)

lunch is likely to be either some tuna fish with a bit of Greek yogurt and shredded cheese, melted in the microwave, or a Pure Protein bar, since I'll be out running around all day today.

Yes, the German Red Cabbage is for when you are post-op a bit. This has:

Ground turkey

Red cabbage

Kale

Onions

Apples

Balsamic vinegar

Cinnamon

Cloves

Sugar

Salt

Pepper

Talk about good and good for you. This is one of my favorite meals, but I wasn't able to eat it until about 7 months post-op. I will also use chicken sometimes. I make huge batches in the fall (right now) and can it in quart jars. I pull it out throughout the year, add the cooked ground turkey and jar it in the freezer. I then grab one as I leave for work.

It will take me about 30 minutes to eat this, ~ 7oz by volume.

There are few things in life finer.

Lazy and quick lunch: 2 slices low fat ham around a low fat cheese stick and about 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes and red pepper spears. No whole grain with lunch because about an hour before I had an ounce of pop chips.

      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.
