need breakfast ideas



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks out, and just started solid food. Yay for no more mushies!! I am looking for Breakfast ideas as I am getting tired of scrambled eggs. Here's the kicker though....I am only allowed Proteins. My doctor has a strict schedule to follow, and no veggies or carbs yet, and no dairy. What are some other things that you eat for breakfast??

Well I became creative with omelets, by adding crabmeat and Monterey Jack cheese. If you don't like that there is meat loafs, cottage cheese, fish, chicken, chili, there's tons of stuff.

I get sick of eggs too, so sometimes I'll have a small lean hamburger patty, and melt a slice of 2% American cheese on top. I can't eat much in the morning, but for blood sugar issues, I have to eat something. The patty is about 2oz of meat.

Another alternative I do, is have 1/2 Aidell's chicken Apple Sausage with an egg. LOVE that. I get the sausage at costco.....much cheaper than the market.

Mornings that I am home for Breakfast I enjoy crustless quiche. There are many creative possibilities for what to add. I add a variety of cheeses and/or meats, and/or veggies.

Most mornings I stick with a Protein shake. Sometimes I will do oatmeal with Protein powder or some sugar free pudding with Protein Powder. Your plan sounds pretty restrictive, does you nutritionist have examples...they should be able to help you out. eggs do get old quick! Good luck!

I am not yet banded but because of all the meds I take I need to eat something in the morning. I'm not a huge Breakfast person and the only breakfast foods I really like are all the bad ones. You know, biscuits and gravy or pancakes. So for the past couple of years I eat a can of chicken and noodle Soup for breakfast. I like it, it's not too heavy and it's higher in Protein and low in calories. My point is just because something is not a traditional breakfast food doesn't mean you can't eat it in the morning. Find something you like and wave your magic wand over it. Wa La! It's now a breakfast food in your world.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
