mayo makes me so uncomfortable, even in small amounts. I found I can easily substitute it with Tzaziki (sp?) sauce -- and happily don't miss mayo. I like a smidge of something on lunchmeat roll-ups or something for moisture. This has helped.

eggs are hit and miss. Muesli sits in me like a rock. bread swells and then I can’t eat anything, so I wasted a whole meal on a bread roll, but craved salad!

I find Breakfast hard - I do so hate the flavour of pretty much every Protein Shake.

Tomorrow I try sardines...

Six months out and still can't tolerate chicken or beef except in tiny amount, maybe mixed with sweet potato. I turned off many foods, especially sweets & breads. I was a carb addict. Now white rice, potato'S, bread, pasta&sweets are big no no's, disgusting really.

68 yo, lost 76 lbs. since surgery 8/18/17

I am the same with Protein Shake or bars. I cannot stand the sweeteners used. Makes me sick. If it's savory I 'm all in.

Eggs...at first, were good, now I just can't get it in. Think I'll try the egg drop Soup suggested at beginning of thread.

Sardines were GREAT! 1/2 tin, with a lettuce leaf, three cherry tomatoes, some red bell pepper and a teaspoon of may - odd breakfast but tasted fab and I was ‘full’ for ages!

AND I have just made a Protein Shake I love!

1 scoop of balance physique vanilla, handful of frozen edamame Beans, handful of mixed frozen berries, 25g plain Greek yoghurt and 1/4 cucumber - with Water and ice cubes, blitzed. Fantastic!!

Sugar and bread. I’m sure every processed carb. I did try a sweet potato fry and it was ok. I am happy I can’t digest sweets and breads and pastries. Very happy. May it never change.

Anything high sugar makes my stomach hurt and sometimes throw up. So now I limit my sugar intake to a quarter cup of granola once in awhile with some Greek yogurt. That's it for sweets and sugars

Yoghurt and I don't get along. Which is a pity because it's high in Protein and super easy.

I’m 9 months out and cannot eat chicken (unless ground, in soups), scrambled eggs, any bread/pasta/rice, etc. I can eat all soft foods. Protein Shakes and bars are needed but make me gag with the sweet tastes.

      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.
