Ok my lunch today. It won't be everyone's cup of tea but here goes. 50 grams roast beef lunch meat 1/4 cup German selleriesalat (like sauerkraut but with celery root) 1 baby be 1.5 "stiratini" hard bread sticks Sriracha sauce for dipping the bread sticks The breadsticks are relatively low carb, go down easy, and ease the craving for bread. 190 calories and 16 grams of Protein.< /p>

Ooh looks yummy to me. I'd never thought to dip bread until sriracha. That's brilliant!

I'm only joking.. Just in a playful mood.. My lunch was a goats cheese, pulled ham, mushroom and spinach omelette thing cooked in egg whites and two whole eggs.. I make a big pan, slice into 6 and that gives me 6 lunches.. Works out at 151 cal (also a teeny bit of coconut oil)

Everyone's food choices are soooo exotic! Makes my quiche Lorraine (with turkey bacon) that I'm making today sound downright boring!

Do you ever go to the Wildflower Festival in Richardson? It is in May. My husband and I have gone for the past several years. This year will be at about my six month mark. Oh, yeah! If nothing else maybe Breakfast in Dallas on Sunday morning.

Hah! You know something interesting? Your real lunch looked a lot more appetizing to me than the pancakes. Our taste buds have changed haven't they?

Your real lunch sounds delicious.

I don't know, a quiche sounds good. Good for you, easy to eat, and you'll probably have leftovers for work tomorrow. Post a pic for sure :)

I love that people are posting pics of their food. Gives all of us creative ideas so we don't get stuck in a rut. Looking forward to more pictures celebrating all the wonderful, healthy, sleeve-friendly things we get to enjoy.

Yes I have tried it with other fillings such as chicken, bacon and mackerel (not all at the same time) but the pulled ham definitely the most tasty option!! Taste buds sure have changed.. I had my eye on the bottle of baileys (cream liqueur) more than the pancakes.. :) I'm like you gamergirl.. I love cooking its the best thing in the world - well one of the best things!!

Are you talking about having recipes? I'm not sure I understand what you mean when you say"guest place"?

If you would like the recipe I would be happy to post it....Takes only a few minutes prep and 30 min to cook the berries and it tastes heavenly...Eat a Protein along side it and you have a complete meal...

      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.
