Breakfast help!

[Kat23 47]

Just had my 6 month follow up. Overall I am doing well and slightly ahead of schedule as far as weight loss. Every morning I have cottage cheese topped with fruit and almonds for Breakfast and I love it. My doc said it is fine for now but as time goes on the mushy foods will not keep me full. I love the taste and how quick and easy it is but I need new ideas now. I'm know I will not be making myself eggs in the morning. smoothies and Protein Shakes re not okay either. . Any ideas????? I appreciate it.

I'm 17 months post op and LOVE my cottage cheese and eat it every day. I also have oatmeal and flavor it with cinnamon. I make a breakfast pie with eggs, veggies and bake it in a pie shell. You can get pretty creative with what you add. I will make a breakfast pie on Sunday and it last me all week, I just put a slice in a container and heat it up when I get to work. You don't necessarily have to eat "breakfast" foods for breakfast, I'm the type of person that can eat anything any time of day so don't restrict yourself to "breakfast only" foods for breakfast... eat what you like when you like

You can also make mini individual sized quiches using a muffin tin. Quiche is wicked easy - all you do is mix eggs, skim milk, cracked pepper, and your choice of add-ins. I like bacon and asparagus; spinach, mushrooms and cheddar; ham, onion, and swiss; Tomato, spinach and feta; chourico and cheddar; and broccoli and cheddar. Be creative - throw in whatever you like! :-)

When you make a batch you can put the extras in ziploc bags and freeze them. lunch or dinner in a pinch! :-)

Hi everyone,please be aware that drinking coffee of any kind can give you painful stomach ulcers after surgery, I been drinking 2cups Decaf a day & now I have stomach ulcers (very painful) my dr found them yesterday during another upper go. I couldn't keep anything down very long even fluids for more than 1he, I was hoping it was a stricture but it's something that may prompt another unexpected surgery if these nasty meds don't heal the ulcers. Please stay away from all coffee & tea, it's my lesson learned..
