Help With Choices For Meals



Recommended Posts

I've had my band for 4 1/2 years and am in a rut. I eat the same breakfast and lunch pretty much everyday. I need some ideas to jazz up my diet. Thanks!

What is it that your currently eating?

Morningstar Farms Protein veggie Protein w/ cottage cheese

tuna or chicken from can w/some light mayo I put on whole grain tortilla or cracker or eat it alone

Romaine lettuce w/ black Beans

Make some home made chili it is a good go tofood.. EASY to make

Grilled chicken or other meats

eggs/egg beaters toss in salsa or I like to add in Morningstar farms products in them. Makes and omlette,

We jazz up Protein shakes w/ Ginger, Kale, banana, and Ice cubes VERY YUMMY.

We occasionally slice up a sweet potato, use a dab of olive oil/spray or with Pam, and kinda mix the sliced potato in it season it up and bake 30 minutes or till done to your liking at 350 degrees (good if your craving fries of some sort)

I mix cottage cheese and black Beans together (but I am a food mixer) you can toss in some meat protein too.

For lunch most days I have a whole wheat sandwich thin with a laughing cow wedge and deli turkey or roast or tuna- less than 200 calories usually. I eat a lot of chicken for supper and a sandwich thin w Peanut Butter and a banana for Breakfast or an egg. Really into these sandwich thins can you tell? Super good and only 40 calories for 1/2 of one. Also do wheat tortillas as wraps sometimes or tacos.

I eat Kay's Protein Cereal w/blueberries for breakfast and most of the time I have a Chobani Yogurt for lunch with almonds. Otherwise, I'll get a small salad w/ egg and feta for protein. dinner is dicey. Sometimes I make chicken or Pasta and meatballs and sometimes I have a 1/4 cup pancake mix with an egg. See why I need ideas?

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
