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.

Can you eat ham? I like ham for breakfast.

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

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
