Breakfast question

[samuelsmom 670]

There's no Cereal that I like that much, however I have had pancakes made with extra Protein. I can eat one with a little butter and I like the low sugar strawberry preserves from Smuckers. Doesn't affect the weight loss that I can tell. However, this is a very once in a while thing. I am 4 months out and have had a pancake 3 times.

Nope never. Sleeved 1-19. You could probably tolerate oatmeal and cream of wheat much better. I always have a Protein Shake for Breakfast followed by a mid morning yogurt if I get hungry. pancakes ansD waffles will sit on your tummy like a lead brick!

Ooo the strawberry preserves sound yummy. I've actually got an unopened jar of raspberry preserves that someone gave me for Christmas. Guess I'll try them on my pancake this weekend! In fact, I'm thinking of making a thinner batter, calling it a crepe and rolling it up with cream cheese and preserves....drooool.....

Swap those raspberry preserves for marmalade and I'm right there with you!

I'm about 6 months post-op. I don't eat waffles or pancakes (not a big sacrifice for me) and greatly limit bread, but have occasionally had 1 slice of light (40 cal) wheat toast with poached egg. However, I often add a very small amount of granola to my greek yogurt and fruit for breakfast, mostly for the crunch. I also occasionally have a 1/4 cup of steel cut oatmeal with some skim milk or kefir in it. I do try to avoid those kinds of carbs but if I give it to myself once in awhile in a small amount, I don't crave it.

This morning I went out to Breakfast with my Dad. I debated between one scrambled egg, or a side of cottage cheese. Turned out that the cottage cheese had more Protein. I also ordered a cup of fruit. I ate probably a 1/4 of the cottage cheese and about a 1/3 of the fruit cup. My husband was quite happy to get the left overs. There are a lot of left overs in my house. My teenager doesn't want them, however!
