I am going camping and horseback riding this weekend. This will be my first time going since my weight loss and sleeve.Really looking forward to it ! But, I need some ideas on what I should take in my saddle bags for Snacks and a lunch . Nothing that will need to be chilled , not that easy on horseback :P

Thanks for your suggestions !!!

freeze FF/sf Greek yogurt, eat when it thaws or partially thawed, like ice cream. Dannon light & fit Greek is awesome for this.

Jerky and Pork rinds, just watch sodium.

almonds,

maybe some Peanut Butter.

Freeze bottled Water and freeze some half full bottles too and add Water just before you head out. That way you will have something to drink, while waiting for the others to thaw.

baby carrots, grapes (frozen or not) to snack on

And have a wonderful time!!

OMG I'm so jealous.!

I usually keep Protein bars and Jerky in my saddlebags for Snacks on rides. I'm a big fan of trail mix, too....I just make my own with my favorite mixed nuts and craisins. I also do the frozen Water bottle thing, but I freeze my Syntrax nectar Protein drinks in them instead of plain Water. One of my riding pals has had bypass and she's always snacking on sunflower seeds when we ride. And she freezes bottles of Vitamin water to drink like slushies as they melt.

Have a great trip! Did I mention I'm jealous?

      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.
