I am in the process of getting approved for bariatric surgery. Woo Hoo! Of course, my Dr wants me to lose 31 pounds before the surgery, so I am on a high Protein, low carb diet. I am surprised that I am keeping to it very well. But I really could use some suggestions for Breakfast other than eggs. I like eggs, but really I need some kind of variety. (I usually have a Protein shake for lunch, but I don't think I can handle two a day) Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thank you!!!!

I liked a piece of ham wrapped around a bit of cream cheese. I had that a lot when I was on a low carb diet.

I like a slice of Turkey Bacon /or Turkey sausage Link. With a Egg or Eggbeaters.

Also 1 packet of Flavored oatmeal works well for me too.

Thank you so much everyone for the great tips!

I can't believe I didn't think to switch out what I normally think of as lunch for breakfast!! Must be the lack of carbs is getting to my brain......lol

I love greek yogurt, and I never would have thought of oatmeal.< /p>

Thank you again so very much!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
