Okay here is my food for the day.

Cream of Wheat and Applesauce

Turkey salad

Halibut w/ potatoe, broccoli

Tapioca pudding

40 oz crystal light

72 oz Water

All meals were very small portions and I took anywhere from 30mintues to 1 hour to eat. :)

I am very lucky that I own a restaurant and I have educated all my cooks about band food how to cook it and Portion Control. So I dont cook much but I still have to be so careful about testing things, sampling just a few down falls of being a restaurant owner.

what is kalamata tapenate?

Tapenade is a spread made of olives, pretty much mushed up olives and oil, it used mostly for crackers or toasted breads. For the sake of adding calories i add to some meats to vary the taste of things..and its all good fats

Hey Goosefrabra, you sound like me, trying to get some flavor. I want to put pesto on anything to give it some taste. Unfortunately, I have practically no restriction and can eat more than 1/2 a cup at a meal. Today I had greek yougurt for the first time and loved it! And tons of Protein to boot and it tastes way better than the nasty kashi high Protein and Fiber oatmeal I had been eating for Breakfast.

So here's my list:

Breakfast: 1/2 c. greek yogurt w/ 1/2 c. frozen berries and tbsp honey

Lunch: 2 slices homemade pizza (made the dough, made the sauce, small amount of cheese the only topping)

Snack: biscotti

Dinner: 1/2 baked chicken breast w/ roasted carrots, parsnips and potatos

Snack: 2 more Biscotti:thumbdown: (They sound good, very low in fat, until I dipped them into chocolate)

Tomorrow is back to work, where its much easier to avoid temptation!:)

Okay, I forgot the midafternoon guacamole break. Tasty too. About 10 small chips dunked in.

Edited by redmom
Damn! I forgot the guacamole!

Hey China, no problems with the biscotti. Really, the only problem I've had so far was with a grilled chicken salad. I think I gulped it down without chewing the chicken enough.

Today was much better;

Breakfast 1/2 c. greek yogurt, 1/3 c. frozen berries, 1tbsp. honey

lunch green salad with two slices of deli roast beef, gorgonzola cheese and 2tbsp. of italian dressing

dinner 1/2 chicken breast (breaded and sauted in olive oil :tongue2:) with a mixed green salad tossed with lemon vinagrette on top.

snack 3x biscotti.< /p>

      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.
