What's For Breakfast Today?



Recommended Posts

Still on the "Full" liquid stage of my post-op diet. Have another 2-3 weeks and then I will slowly start adding in soft veggies ( don't think that I can do "pureed" stuff...eeewwww). Trying to keep my carbs at about 50 grams per day ( if possible)...and the key word here is TRYING. Going to do my best to get in at least 40 oz. of pure Water. No teas..no Protein waters... just good ole H20. Started back using myfitness pal to keep track of my carbs/fat/sugar/sodium. I also am trying to get an idea of how many calories I eat on average. So what have some of you veterans/newbies had or will have for Breakfast today?

For me an Atkins Cafe Caramel shake ... it doesn't taste all that great...not sure if I will buy them again.. but they have 15 grams of protein and about 4 grams of carbs so I might keep 'em around for a while. Especially when I return back to work.

For me it is finally a casual Sunday Morning! This is a time that I truly enjoy with my wife and I am glad to be back to normal at 8 weeks out.

My Breakfast today is 2 scrambled eggs with 2 slices of turkey bacon, a newspaper and the TV on morning news shows.

Try heating the Atkins Shake... Makes it taste 10x better! Just like a cappuccino! For me I like to have an inside out omelette, egg and cheese rolled in turkey slices!

Whipped cottage cheese and peaches/pears.... and little too much coffee. I am so bored with eating. I need to make a trip to the grocery store today.

I'm impressed with everyone's breakfasts! In order to ensure Protein I'm having 8oz of skinny chocolate milk (with DHA and Omega-3) and a scoop of unflavored whey Protein powder - about 24 grams of Protein.

I'll have an egg (scrambler) and a piece of turkey sausage for lunch and a few ounces of homemade chili for dinner.

I find it really hard to eat early on in the day...hoping that will improve!

Main goal is Water, Water, water today at 5.5 weeks out!

My breakfast is the same 20-22 days of the month. I eat plain yogurt sweetened with 1 tbs agave nectar, 12 almonds or cashews, 2 tsp chia seed, or sometimes dried fruit, 2 tsp granola. The other days I either have a Protein Shake or two eggs with 1 oz cheese.

      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.
