I love beef and turkey Jerky - also Ostrim which is ostrich jerky! And for a real treat, marlin jerky (only for people who like fish)! It is delicious and has a higher Protein to calorie ratio than beef, turkey, or ostrich jerky.

Other things I like: Greek yogurt with a little PB2 stirred in, cottage cheese with hot sauce, roasted edamame, roasted garbanzo Beans.< /p>

My go to "boredom munchies" are Jerkys, raisins, almonds, little fruit cups and if I'm short on Protein for the day....then a Protein Bar.

I was aloud Beef Jerkey at 8 weeks that being said, I enjoy low sodium beef Jerky daily ;) also love low sodium almonds, Greek yogurt, deli ham wrapped around a cheese stick and two slices of Kosher doll sandwich pickles(tho I count that as a meal) Light American Cheese slice with part of an apple, part of an apple with Peanut Butter, and Laughing Cow light cheese wedges...I count my Protein Shake as a snack and I'm really not supposed to eat other Snacks in addition to my 3 meals and two shakes a day but sometimes I gotsta eat something!

Oscar Mayer P3, they are little containers with a total of 2 oz, they have different combo of meat, cheese and nuts. They are about 120-140 calories, and have 12-15 grams of Protein. They have turkey, ham, and chicken, peanuts or almonds, and cheddar, or colby jack.

I am 22 days out gastric bypass and my nut says as long a I chew to the consistency of apple sauce I can pretty much have anything except raw veggies/salads.... I'm loving my P3 and a watermelon wedge for lunch❤️

String cheese, Babybels, or Laughing Cow on Wasa cracker

Pickled or deviled eggs

Jerky - if anyone can suggest a VERY low sodium variety or brand, please advise!

Leftover marinated and grilled ANYTHING - after the weekend there is always something left from the grill. Very often I have bite size chunks of cold chicken, steak, shrimp, pork, even cod or haddock in a baggie in my purse. I just make sure to eat it within a couple of hours. Leftover meats in small amounts are my mainstay.

Tinned smoked oysters, tuna in the pouch

Nori - dried seaweed

Raw almonds

Greek yogurt 2% with raw sunflower seeds thrown in. If I'm feeling decadent, I add a spoon of honey.

Leftover sashimi (within one day)

      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.
