Anyone have any suggestions for Breakfast ideas that are high in protien and are low in starch? I know eggs are high in protien, but I actually have a little bit of a hard time getting eggs down. So I am trying to find some things to eat for Breakfast that are good for you and keep you full. My dietician tells us to eat 4 hours apart and absolutely no snacking in between. Which sometimes when I have oatmeal (starch), or a protien shake or yogurt for breakfast, I am really hungry within 2 hours. I don't have fill yet, but I am trying to eat better and need some ideas if you have any! I am hoping that once I start getting my fills, that a yogurt or protien shake will fill me up for longer! I hope this is the case anyway!

I have either Turkey Bacon or Turkey Sausage, and a Poached egg.

It's good too.

Carnitation Instant Breakfast is Good too.

I love carnation instant breakfast, but same thing, hungry after two hours. I am hoping a fill will help with that. But thanks for your input! Much appreciated!

When is your fill? I am always looking for stuff for breakfast also. My doctor said no more Protein shakes at all anymore unless it is the day after a fill. He said that i can do Protein Bars instead, just cant drink my calories anymore. At my fill someone mentioned a mini Quiche that you can make ahead of time. I will see if I can find it to post for you :)

Good luck!

This is what I have for breakfast: Chobaini greek yoghurt 0% fat with fruit; 2 teaspoons benefiber, 1/2 scoop vanilla whey isolate Protein Powder, splendra, 1/4 cup kashi go lean (high Protein version). Mix the powder ingrediants then the Cereal. I find if I mix and let sit for a 2-3 minutes it also firms up the yoghurt. I say about 25 g protein for about 250 cal.

Here are a couple items that I eat for breakfast with relevant nutrition information:

1. Low Fat Cottage cheese - 1/2 Cup is 90 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, and 13 grams of Protein

2. Pure Protein Bar - I like the smores and Peanut Butter flavor. The smores is 180 calires, 5 grams of fat, and 19 grams of Protein. The

Peanut Butter is 200 calories, 6 grams of fat, and 20 grams of protein. I buy these at walgreens. They are perfect size for me (less than

2oz)

3. Boiled Egg with Low Fat Sargento Cheese: 120 total calories, 11 grams of fat, and 12 grams of protein

4. Boost Low Calorie chocolate Shake: 190 Calories, 7 grams of fat, 16 grams of protein

Hope this helps :D

Some days I still do a Protein Shake because it's quick (my nutritionist is ok with it as long as it is occaisional). My other favs are egg beaters with lauging cow cheese and turkey sausage, chobani yogurt and oatmeal (I try to keep my carbs below 40g per day so oatmeal and yogurt are not something I do often).

I know you said eggs are hard to get down but you might want to scramble some up with a little salsa or sauteed mushrooms and onions. Seems to help me.

I do turkey sausage crumbles with 1/2 cup egg whites. I heat the sausage crumbles for a minute and then add the egg whites (egg beaters type). Perfect amount and taste really yummy. Sprinkle a pinch of shredded cheese and your good to go.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
