Breakfast smoothies

This morning we are all drinking a smoothie made from:

pineapple w/core

Carrot w/peel

Baby Kale

Orange

Frozen strawberries

Chobani Greek 0% fat yogurt

Agave Syrup

The kale flavor definitely shines through, but it has 170 % of the daily Vitamin c, not to mention amazing amounts of A and K as well. Add in the Fiber and probiotic benefits and it is a great way to start the day. Besides that, it tastes great.

My boss who is Mr. Triathlete Iron man competitor both he and his wife. They make these types of shakes every morning, and swear by them.

Here is one that is practically NO calories and I have had it before it's not bad tasting at all!

Kale

banana

Ginger

Walnuts

Milk

Put 8-12 oz of Water in the mixer, add kale chop on low...add banana and handful of walnuts and a dash of milk to taste.

The above sounds great!!! There are as many recipe's and variations limited to only one's imagination and taste....

There is only one difference between those above and the one's I make every morning......I make sure to start with a scoop of `100% whey, which insures I am getting my Protein...35gm at least to start the day....

The additives mask the whey and you do not even know it's there....(excluding chocolate whey)

I've been on this smoothie kick since being banded 3 years ago....I have many friends who do it who are not banded....and the health club I go to has a "Juice Bar"

      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.
