I am not sure why my team is insistant about it. They have been since I was pre-op. I never have been a Breakfast eater. I like to do coffee in the morning with a little premier mixed in. But they also want me to get out of the Protein Shakes.< /p>

I swear I know this is a Bariatric food forum, not Flyertalk :lol:. But when traveling, I rarely eat alone except at the airport or on the plane. Not like I can really take pics at a business dinner. And at home I only serve what I know I can eat, so I have no after pics.

Hahahaha, I like your Mile high foods!

That's interesting. I definitely would not get along with your team. I'm not a breakfast eater, and generally can't hit my Protein goals without a shake, or some kind of protein supplement.

:lol:

Actually was pretty proud of myself. Had at least a little of everything, EXCEPT the Pasta, left that untouched. I should have eaten more of the chicken, but, ugh, chicken bores me.

Meal prep!!!

Roasted chickpeas (smoky chili style) before they go in the oven.

This will be a salad ingredient.

Protein brownies (for breakfast subscriptions)

1 banana, 1 egg, 3tbsp chia seeds, 1tsp oil of your choice, 100g Protein Powder of your choice, 4 tbsp cacao powder, 2 tsp baking powder, dash of sugar sub of your choice, pinch of salt, *optional : nuts,1 tsp powdered psyllium husk (fiber)

the key to making this behave like there is flour in it is blending the egg banana Water mixture first, then add baking powder to the blender, lastly hand folding the rest of the ingredients in.

10 equal bars = 10 grams of protein (cals may vary depending on individual ingredients used)

(Please no lawsuits for uneven protein distribution 😂)

      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.
