depending on where im at in my green zone (going for a fill next monday) i usually have a Boost Protein Drink and then snack on either a few almonds or turkey jerkey, or a slice of cheese or maybe eat half a Protein Bar. Easy, portable and i dont have to cook !

I make a Breakfast casserole of eggs, some kind of breakfast meat, canned artichoke hearts, cheese etc. I then portion it out for the week. Easy to microwave and super yummy.

I also brown up a pound of good chorizo. I mix half with a can of fat free refried Beans and the other half I save for another breakfast casserole. I take the bean and chorizo mix and spread it in an ice cube tray and freeze. My ice tray measures an 1/8th of a cup. After they are frozen I put those little frozen cubes of love in their own Ziploc and when it is time for breakfast, I scramble an egg and microwave a cube. Mix the two together, sprinkle a tablespoon of cheese and some salsa on top. YUMMO!

For breakfast I have a fruited Greek yogurt with the following add ins: 1/2 scoop whey Isolate Protein powder (this makes it thicker and adds about 12 g of protein), unflavored Fiber powder, Splendra to taste; a couple broken up walnuts (I roast a pan full which brings out the flavor), about 1/2 cup high Protein Kashi Go Lean. Even before restriction this would keep me full for about 4 hours.

FYI for cherry, raspberry yogurt I use chocolate Protein Powder.

is bread allowed in our diets?

My Dr. told me to stay away from bread however I've heard that toasted bread is ok. Flour/bread is a trigger for me so I'm going to avoid it. It has no nutritional value anyway.

      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!!
