Do you eat breakfast?



Recommended Posts

I have Oikos drinkable yogurt for Breakfast most days. Other days I'll have one scrambled egg or cream of wheat (although even though it's very very filling, it's only 3 grams of Protein. So I don't do that anymore). I like the drinkable yogurts because I can start my day without cooking which allows me to do more with my day. And they have 10 gram of Protein. Then I get on my old elliptical and do 20 minutes. Then I get some decaffeinated coffee and add 4 oz of Premier Protein vanilla that adds 10.8 grams of protein. Breakfast helps to get my day started. And the protein helps me exercise more and more.

I don't "eat" breakfast but I have a Protein latte. I run through the Starbucks drive-thru and order triple espresso over ice in a venti cup and add either a premier vanilla or caramel shake. It's how I start every work day. I'm just not great at eating in the mornings so this routine works for me.

I'm prone to nausea in the morning but do better when I eat. Pre-op, I'd blend up some Chike mocha Protein shake with hemp seeds. Post-op, that's too much lactose and effort so I keep rtd coffee Protein shakes in the fridge - very thin, not too sweet - and try to get one down fairly early.

7am: Protein latte - 15g Protein

10am (ish) - either left overs from dinner the night before or greek yoghurt/nuts/protein bar or other snack.< /p>

I can't do without my latte drink now, i love it and it fills me up!

You guys make me wish i drank coffee lol. Not a huge coffee fan but i love tea. I honestly hardly ever eat Breakfast. I usually either don't feel like it or no time. But usually if i have it I'd start with a Protein shake. For some reason its just easier to get down instead of food first meal of the day.

Have you ever used vanilla Protein powder to make a tea latte? I make an iced chai latte or Thai tea most mornings!

      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.
