Forgot what to eat



Recommended Posts

I am over four years out. I recently got married and now have no reason not to slim down (want baby's) but I work super early and cannot remember what I used for Protein in the morning. Help?

For Breakfast, I love scrambling a few eggs with a little shredded cheese and green onion and/or red/green peppers. I might also do a couple of Morningstar soy links with an egg.

Yogurt (greek or other high protein/low sugar) is also good.

Or a smoothie using skim milk, yogurt, throw in a few strawberries and handful of spinach and small banana and you've got something that is portable and tasty and high Protein (just watch the banana/fruit amounts).

And when I'm really lazy, a half cup of cottage cheese with a handful of raspberries is good for me. (but I also eat several small meals a day, so about two hours later, I have a glass of Mootopia - a high Protein, low lactose milk sold by a grocery chain in Texas).

My standard Breakfast is 3 oz of chicken breast. I get the cooked flavored chicken breasts from Trader Joe's. Chop up 3 oz and breakfast is ready in under 2 minutes.

I always just have a Protein Bar for breakfast. I know it's not ideal, but it works so well for my schedule. I was eating Quest Bars, but they recently switched to soluble corn Fiber, which makes me SUPER gassy. So I am now having a Combat Crunch bar every morning.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
