Hey there! I had surgery November 6th and have lost 78 lbs! Anyway the only problem I tend to have is not knowing what to eat! I wake up hungry and don't know what to eat because my stomach hurts and I don't know what to snack on during the day and so on and so forth. I have read a lot of great ideas on here but I am looking for more.. Maybe some ideas for breakfast, some snack ideas.. maybe lunch and dinner ideas? Haha, all ideas. Also, I still have a hard time taking in plain water. I drink crystal light and stuff like that, but are there any other ideas? What do you guys drink? Load on the ideas.

How many grams of protein do you try top get in daily?

Here is a blog I've seen lots of people refer to for recipes and ideas.

Maybe this will give you some ideas.

I had mine back in September, I am down to 168 and I went thru the same thing. I have found for breakfast I do some of the following to get the best bank for the buck.

Breakfast

Dry Cereal I then to do the Kashi or the nut ones to get the added Fiber

I do sliced cucumbers with a little Greek yogurt--this is good for added Water

Sliced fruit works well in frozen yogurt

Snacks

I do the trail mix, baby cheese, pistachios, and best of all for the sweet craving yogurt covered raisins

For the water if you are really having trouble getting it down try drinking it at room temperature, my DR told me that the best way to get the most out of it. Cold water is only absorbed about 20% where warm is more around 60%. Also try freezing fruit and things like cinnamon or mint in a ice cube tray for your water to add flavor without the extra sugars

I was always told cold water is absorbed faster.

Special Kay Protein cereal.
It’s great!

I'm 10 months out and eat whatever I want. Not a lot but whatever. I don't deal with pasta or rice very well though still. Down a 135lbs. 10 to go. No more meds of any type feel better than I have in years.
