What do you eat for breakfast?



Recommended Posts

So, my pouchy does NOT like Breakfast. Nothing about it other than a cup of Decaf coffee appeals to me or my belly. I ordered some Click Protein, which should be in today. I am praying this will stick because it doesn't even like normal protein shakes.. I can't stand eggs since surgery, so theyre a no go. I've basically been eating cheese and crackers, which doesn't provide enough protein for a meal. :/ My doctor wants me to get more protein than I have been getting, but I can't seem to find any "artificial" protein sources that will hang out in my tummy without having to gag them down.

Have you tried Quest Protein Bars? I have them sometimes for breakfast. Or oatmeal with some unflavored Protein added. For shakes, I drink the Atkins shakes and I mix them in with my coffee.< /p>

I usually always have a Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, usually strawberry banana. Every morning.

Or ometimes I have a couple bites of 50% less fat Corn Beef Hash and about a half of a scrambled egg every once in a while.

I did find these waffles in the freezer section of my store, its Vans Natural food Power Grains Protein waffles.

They are really good. A serving is 2 but I obviously have 1 and its only 90 calories, 2.5 g fat, little high on carbs with 13 carbs, 3 sugars and 5 grams Protein, they are really good.

I can't seem to stomach the texture of Quest bars. They taste just fine, but the texture gets me. Lol I'm so weird about food textures.

Try heating the Quest bars for 15 seconds. Much better.

Everyday I have cottage cheese with chopped nectarines and slivered almonds on top. 15 grams of Protein.

I usually have yogurt. Maybe a mini Babybel? I think you could eat anything if its not " breakfast food" if chicken or shrimp for breakfast sounds good to you do that.

I bought some of the Quest Protein bars because everyone was raving about them. I had to track them down. I tried apple pie... Couldn't do it. The texture is like taffy...I don't know its just weird. Overly processed and it kinda grosses me out

I found Protein bars that are like wafer cookies! 200 calories, 15g protein and only 5g sugar. They're called Power Crunch Protein Energy Bars. This morning I had Peanut Butter fudge.

Haha that's what I had for breakfast this morning. I like the chocolate, but hated the vanilla. I threw it out this morning.

nectar makes a Cappuccino Protein Powder that I mix with a cup of Decaf coffee. The whole packet is 100 cals, 23g Protein and 0 sugar. I mix it with an immersion blender and it froths up like a cappuccino is suppose to. Pretty delicious!

Yes I spread a little butter on it too. I end up leaving a good size piece behind.

      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.

      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!!
