I am at the mushie stage and my doctor says 3 oz of Protein per meal. I found that 1/2 cup egg beaters and 1/8 cup low fat cottage cheese made 3oz. I don't feel it fills me up as much as 3 oz of shredded chicken made with non fat yogurt.

When I used to eat eggs I'd have 2 of them. Since then I've stopped eating them just because the cholesterol in them is insane. I use Egg Beaters now or just plain egg whites; usually 1/4-1/2 cup.

If I go out to Breakfast, I'll have two poached eggs and one slice of dry whole wheat toast and I'm satisfied. If I'm home, I'll do two egg whites and one egg with a little milk. Eat slowly though!!

i make one egg and and about three tbs of milk. some days i can eat it all, other days i can only eat about half of it. I am doing the p90x workout program and i laughed when i was reading their diet plan...6 egg white omlet with veggies and cheese...that would feed me for the whole day i think...haha

I was told 1 egg, reason being ...its the size of your new stomache.

i've only been eating one egg at breakfast time, however I've been adding 1/2 slice of cheese to it to change it up, but i noticed it's not agreeing with my stomach anymore.

my nutrionist said three strikes and it's out................i've hit my fourth strike......sadness :)

I hope it's the cheese and not the eggs, i love eggs!

I do two to three eggs. Two eggs is usually enough for me and that's if I can get it all down. There are times that I have been really hungry and prepared three eggs, but felt so stuffed.

Before band, I would eat 2. After band, only 1...assuming my band would let me eat even that. Most mornings I'm so tight I can only manage a Protein Drink.< /p>

beachbunny like even with my first I could still eat three eggs....I stay away, am happier with cottage cheese (fat-free) maybe some salsa in it or yogurt mixed. I realize that I won't be eating this long term because it is fairly soft, but then so are eggs.< /span>

When I fix scrambled eggs, it's usually 1 eggland's best egg and 1/4 cup egg white mixed together.

I also throw in a tiny bit of mushrooms and a tiny bit of spinach and 1tbspn real bacon bits (not those baco's junk).

That's usually very filling for me.

Now that I have my first fill, and I'm on solids, since I'm low carbing I get to eat (for breakfast) small hamburger patty, slice of cheddar, and a fried egg...yum, yum keeps me full till dinner. 59 grams of Protein and 2 carbs:cool:!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
