Your favorite banded breakfast.....



Recommended Posts

I can't each much, usually a shake or very runny grits with a slice of ff cheese stirred in. I usually don't loosen up until late afernoon. Although i do love crunchy stuff. Like whole wheat crackers. they are my friend since I've had the band!

Don't know why I didn't do this MONTHS AGO!

I am drinking my breakfast this morning. 1/2 cup frozen blueberries and 1/2 banana, all mixed up in a blender with 1 cup milk. I don't eat much fruit so this is a good way to get my fruit in.

I also have a juicer. I might drink 3 carrots later.:confused:

YUMMY and lots of Vitamins........drinking slowly of course.

Kity - your Protein drink sounds yummy and a lot like I make mine, except, I add cottage cheese to my Protein Drink.

For Bfast I eat the one of the following:

Protein Drink made with (vanilla whey Protein powder, 1/4 cup cottage cheese, few strawberries, blue berries, and 1/2 small container of SF yogurt) mix it all in a magic bullet and add a few ice chips. YUMMY

Or

sometimes I just have some coffee & SF cream

OR

cottage cheese mixed with some fresh berries or yogurt

Every now and then, I splurge for an everything Omlet at my works cafeteria (the Omlet last me 3 days).

I'm pretty simple and eat the same things for breafast pretty much daily these days. It seems to work for me.

1/2 cup of egg whites 60 cals. Some green pepper chopped and a slice of fake cheese which is only 25 cals. Sometimes I add 2 or 3 slices of turkey bacon.

If I don't have that its a yogurt.

I make my own Protein drink for Breakfast every morning:

2 oz ff organic vanilla yogurt

4-6oz frozen berries

1 T flaxseed oil

1 scoop soy vanilla Protein Powder

1 scoop perfect food greens

4-6oz orange juice

blend.

deeeelicious!

If I'm in a hurry, then I grab a bottle of Odwalla chocolate Protein drink. I keep a stash of them on hand for the 1-2 days a week that I need to dash out the door.

      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!!
