What about yogurt, Soup, pudding, etc? Smoked salmon if you're onto it, creme fraiche, a little dill. Perfect bite. But really, anything with protein!!! Good luck!

I cant do any typical breakfast foods in the morning, no eggs, oatmeal, pancakes etc. After a cup of hot tea, I can do Belvita breakfast biscuts ( grocery stores cookie aisle, don't get the chocolate flavor ), turkey Jerky, PB onWheat Thins, cheese sticks, trail mix, homemade oatmeal breakfast Cookies, yogurt or a smoothie.< /p>

Between my half a cup of OJ for meds and a Protein shake I am usually full until around 1-1:30. Too tight for anything else that early in the morning.

I usually just do yogurt and feel full until around 1-2 pm, even though I do make myself eat a small lunch even if I'm not hungry, or I'd end up not eating until dinner.< /p>

I usually wake up not hungry, and try to drink 2-3 cups of Water within half an hour of waking up, but I make sure Ive had a little something to eat 2-3 hours before lunch. Usually its something like:

Hot milk with a sprinkle of cardamom or cinnamon, or

plain or strawberry yoghurt, or

cottage cheese on a few crackers, or

a couple crackers and half a cup of baked Beans, or

Chickpea Hummus and a cucumber (grated on top for tighter mornings), or

A slice of homemade banana/date bread, or

A banana with a spoon of nut butter spread on top. Yum :-)

Carnation breakfast essentials is my cup of coffee. It has 13 g of Protein plus whatever is in the skim milk. It doesn't taste like all those yucky protein drinks! Then around mid morning I'll have a Yoplait Greek Apple pie. 12 g of protein in that ;)

I have not had a Breakfast consisting of solid food in years..too tight in the morning.

I take my blender, start with a scoop of Protein, add my choice of fruit, berries, whatever I wish to add, 8 oz's almond milk and I get the best tasting smoothie I can imagine, plus 40 gm of protein....I'm good for the entire day with plenty of energy.

And if I am on the run, the convenience stores are now selling high Protein drinks off the shelf...

Try to beat that with eggs, oatmeal or anything solid without overeating.

I am also a big fan of Protein Shakes. Six days a week I start with one. I like Protein Powder, skim milk, sometimes PB2 or a variety of Torani sugar free syrups. It keeps me full all morning, 3-4 hours.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
