I have never been a Breakfast eater. For breakfast I have a vanilla yogurt smoothie. I blend vanilla yogurt with a mixture of frozen blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. I love it.

Chobani Yogurt and Protein Shakes. oatmeal and farina work great as well but there isn't much Protein in those foods but you can always add protein. Sometimes I will have some canned salmon with farina...Tastes great.

I sometimes do oatmeal, hard boiled eggs, soft scramble eggs, special k, Fiber one Cereal...I do not like greek yogurts, beef Jerky or Protein shakes (sometimes I even do snow crabs for breakfast I love it and my pouch does too...;),

Here are a few places to get search some food ideas for foods, and also if you have my fitness pal you can save people from here and look in their diary for more food ideas....

This might sound horrible to some but I hate eating breakfast so alot of times I will eat beef Jerky, it's quick, filling and u don't have to eat alot. It's high in Protein and low in fat, carbs and sugar!

My go to breakfast: one boiled egg with 2 crackers with chives flavoured chunky cottage cheese and some mini tomatoes and cucumber. It's the best! Fills me up nicely and is easy on the pouch and packed with Protein.< /p>

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
