I know my response is a little late for this thread, but you might consider adding more variety to the scrambled eggs. For example, adding feta cheese and dill is really tasty. You can also make omelets with different veggies, meats and cheeses packed inside. There are a million things you can try with scrambled eggs. Why not branch out and try it?

I want salty for breakfast

For a long time, I didn't eat breakfast foods for breakfast but ate refried Beans with cheese, tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. Whatever I could get my Protein with. I now eat greek yogurt every morning and even though you don't like anything sweet for breakfast, some of the others may so here are 2 recipes I alternate between:
1/2 Cup Plain No fat Greek Yogurt
2 packs Truvia
2 Tbsp Ground Flax
Smuckers sugar free Caramel Sauce
Pecans
Mix the first three ingredients together, drizzle the top with the caramel and sprinkle some pecans on top. Tastes just like turtle cheese cake without being too sweet.
1/2 Cup Plain Fat free Greek Yogurt
2-4 Tbsp PB2 Peanut Butter powder
2Tbsp milk
2 packs Truvia
Smuckers Sugar Free chocolate sauce
Pecans
Mix the first four ingredients together, drizzle the top with the chocolate sauce and add pecans. Reminds you of a Reese Cup.
These are both high in Protein (The second one has 23G) and are very filling and satisfying to me. I make these and pack them the night before to take to work for breakfast.
You just have to experiment with a lot of things and see what your tastes are. Mine have completely changed. Good Luck!!

I eat scrambled eggs every morning since it's a good source of Protein. Well... I'm getting sick of them!! What does everyone else eat? I need some good suggestions. I also cannot stand anything sweet in the morning for some reason, so please don't suggest a Protein Shake or oatmeal. Blech!! You suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Sleeved Oct 22!
HW: 330

So down 76 total, 51 since surgery
Left is Halloween, right is today
I have gone from a tight size 26 to an 18! I have not been the fastest to shed the pounds but this is the best decision I've ever made and am happier than I've ever been!

You look amazing! & I pray I have "saggy skin" like you! You can't tell at all!

I can eat 2 scrambled eggs but no more. My nutritionist told me that was fine. I really do think everyone has different size sleeves. Or maybe its due to swelling after surgery. I don't know. But I do know that some ppl really struggle with tiny portions while others don't :/

I have whole wheat pasta once and I was 4 post. I did not imply in my post that it should be rushed. I answered the part of the question is there anything wrong with it. The poster did not indicate how far post op she is. Why does everything on this forum have to turn into a debate? You answered your way I answered my way.

I know that may not seem like very much, but I was so nervous about getting weighed today. I kept thinking that I was gaining not losing. I am 4 weeks out now and have lost a total of 31 pounds!!! I'm so happy I want to tell everyone hahahaha!! I told my co-worker, my boyfriend and my mom like I was all proud. I love the positive feedback I'm getting. I'm starting to love my decision to get the sleeve. At first I was thinking to myself "why did I do this". Now I'm thinking "why didn't I do this sooner?" I don't want to jinx anything though so for now I will focus on what I'm supposed to and the weight should continue to come off. Ahhhhhh this is a good feeling

Hi everyone...I was sleeved on 01/21/13 and was wondering if there are any others out there from St Paul or Minneapolis MN?? I went to U of M Fairview for my surgery with Dr Ikraamudin!!

Everything prior to surgery is so overwhelming. There are so many appointments and it's very stressful I just wanted to rip my hair out. Eating is very different after surgery and I still miss hinge eating for that high feeling. I was sleeved on 1/21/13 and I'm still struggling with food. This surgery does not make u eat the right foods. You have to choose the right foods to eat. If you don't then the surgery is so not worth it. I wish you the best and if they say no on surgery....don't give up on yourself!! Maybe its just not the right time for you. If they say yes...make sure you are mentally prepared for the commitment for the rest of your life. . I wish you all the best honey:)

I actually feel my depression is better after losing some weight! And you know.....my doc never mentioned to me the size of the hernia sorry! I just know that it hurt to swallow after surgery and they told me that was from the repair.

No I'm not...the methotrexate works for me. I'm on the highest dose of that so if my RA gets any worse that would be the next step. I better go knock on some wood now

These were my results....just trying to give u hope
