What are some good low carb breakfast options?



Recommended Posts

I'm on week 3 and can have soft foods, soft fruits without the peel, cooked veggie, some meats, cheeses etc...

I have been having 1/2 of a banana the last few days because I just really am not a fan of eggs... I've tried it and I just don't like them. But then I googled the nutrition information for bananas and was shocked at how many carbs it had... I had no idea! ugh.

So what do you eat for Breakfast that is low in carbs?

Found this on Lauras cooking tips. It works for me because im a recovering pancake junkie.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup Water (for puffier pancakes, you can use sparkling water)
  • 2 T oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 T sweetener

Preparation:

Mix ingredients together and cook as you would other pancakes. I like to use a nonstick pan with a little oil. The only real difference is that they won't "bubble" on top the same way as regular pancakes. Flip them when the underside is brown.

Serve with sugar-free maple syrup, Easy Three berry Syrup, strawberry topping, or other low carb topping.

Yield: Six 4-inch pancakes

Nutritional Information: Each pancake has 1 gram effective carbohydrate, plus 2 grams of Fiber, 6 grams of Protein, and 155 calories.

Foster Farms meatballs are really yummy and have like 16 g Protein in 3. I can only eat 2-2.5, but still that is alot.

Amylu carmalized onion chicken burgers from costco are good and juicy. I eat those alot, they have 22g of protein in 1, but are big and I can only eat 1/2.

Chicken salad and tuna salad

Wendy's Chili

Greek yogurt-i don't like it, but lots of people do

Cottage cheese

Foster Farms oven roasted turkey breast lunch meat with laughing cow cheese wedge spread on it-YUMMM

Oscar Meyer roast beef with the same as above

Baked salmon

Precious cheese stick

These are just some of the things I like to eat. Hope it helps you.

Kelly :)

Personally, I like eggs, so I've been having those. However, there's nothing saying that you have to have breakfast foods for breakfast. You can have anything that you would have for your other meals. Many times I will have leftovers from the day before for breakfast. My foods include chicken, tuna, fish, ground beef, etc. I'm on soft foods, so these are not "whole" foods as it were - but chopped up and mixed with low fat Miracle Whip or with a "pasta" sauce, etc. I've had meatloaf and had the leftovers for breakfast.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
