My Ideal Daily Food



Recommended Posts

:hungry:I thought we might be able to share some ideas. Right now, this is what I'm most comfortable with in a day....

Breakfast (I am usually VERY restricted): EAS Carb Control Protein Shake, ice, chewable Vitamin, chewable Calcium, frozen fuit, fresh fruit, extra whey Protein (Any Whey), in a blender. I sometimes drink at once, sometimes sip most of the morning.

Then Water until lunch. I don't do Crystal Light, but sometimes I put a splash of fruit juice in my water.

Snack: Usually none. If I NEEED one, I have a 100 calorie carb control Protein Bar, or around 8 nuts. Nuts fill me up fast.

Lunch: meat and vege. Could be canned tuna and chopped fresh veges....Could be ground beef and grilled veges....anything.

Then water until dinner.< /p>

Snack: Green salad with a tiny bit of really yummy dressing.

Dinner: Same as lunch.

If I'm out for lunch or dinner, I give myself the treat of ordering absolutely anything and just doing Portion Control. At home, I'm stricter about only healthy foods.

After dinner: water. sugar free popsicle. I count up my protein and if I'm short, I have part or all of another Protein shake. The EAS Carb Control ones are only 110 calories.....

      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.
