I need to find something new for Breakfast. Egg has been my go to food for Breakfast. But now it does not agree with my pouch. :( Will I ever love it again?

Other breakfast ideas? I take Protein shakes, yogurt, baby bell cheese, sugar-free Jello with me for work. I need something for breakfast. I also usually bring a pureed Soup.

Deli meat/ham is in my food phase. But I am having difficulty with it. I tried a piece this morning and it got stuck. I thought I was going to vomit until it worked its way down.

Is it egg itself or the texture? Maybe you could make an egg custard? Or mix ricotta and some no sugar pudding powder? Also the Bariatric Eating (bariatriceating.com) website had a slew of great recipes. Also Pinterest.

I am not sure why my pouch is not liking egg anymore.

@@Annek2014, I too cannot tolerate eggs of any kind. It really bums me out because I used to love them. I have tried scrambled, fried, hard boiled, egg salad, egg custard. I have tried mixing them with other things but in the end my pouch nor my tastebuds like them.

I will usually have yogurt with high Protein granola, or oatmeal made with high protein milk. I really struggle when we go out for breakfast and these items are not on the menu. Then I will try ham which I used to love and barely tolerate now. I also sometimes will eat cottage cheese with some sliced strawberries or banana.< /p>

I am going to try fixing them another way. Hmm, maybe it just doesn't agree with me in the morning. LOL

      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.
