Just curious to find out what other banded people eat in a day .What sort of food others can manage and the food they struggle with .

I was really bad today

Breakfast:

Hot cocoa

Lunch: skipped

Dinner: Deluxe Oatmeal (not sure I'll finish it, still working on it)

Total calories for the day under 800 total protien, 13, bad bad girl

Wow, most of you guys are not eating much!! Here's my typical day:

Breakfast - 2 to 3 ounces of chicken breast, 2/3 cup cooked veggies, 1/4 cup stuffing or mashed potatoes

lunch - Lean Cuisine (the low carb kind)

Snack - sugar free pudding

dinner - 3/4 cup soup OR cottage cheese OR oatmeal

I work nights so by the time I get home it's time for bed, so that's why I just have something small for dinner, since I'll be laying down shortly after eating (which I know I'm not supposed to do). I think I'm eating too much...? I haven't had a fill yet and I feel like I could eat a lot more. I'm scheduled for April 6th, I can't wait!!

Dina, its totally individual. If you're losing weight then you're not eating too much. The more you can eat and still lose the better, nutritionally speaking.

What you've listed hardly sounds like a pig out!

Well I'm not losing a whole lot, I've lost 24 lbs, but that includes my pre-op diet before surgery. Since surgery it's been very slow. I think I've lost 9 lbs the past 4-5 weeks. But thanks! You made me feel a lot better!!

For breakfast this morning I had about 1/2 cup of Honey bunches of Oats cereal with about the same 1/2 cup of milk.

For lunch I had about 5 townhouse crackers with tuna salad. Also ate a Tillimook square of cheese.

Snacked on some mixed nuts while surfing the net.

Dinner, was some T-bone Steak (a piece about 2" X 2"), a couple of bites of potatoes, and about 1/4 c. creamed corn.

I drank 3 bottles of water today, and had several glasses of decaf ice tea.

Should have worked some more protein in, but was gone shopping for quite awhile today---will work on it tomorrow!!

Shoot....I am having a bad day....

No breakfast....

lunch a nacho supreme from Taco Hell.... (kids choice)

@ movies....popcorn & Sour patch kids...blah

Snack.... 1/2 cup (or +) pistachio nuts...

I fell off the wagon today and my head hurts! lol...

I just realized we were banded the same day and have lost within a pound of eachother. EXCELLENT JOB SO FAR!

today I've had

2 weetbix for breakfast

half a yoyo(cookie) and a coffee at MT

a yogurt, 4 Water crackers with cheese spread and a small banana for lunch

about six macadamia nuts

1/2 c spaghetti bolognaise for dinner

and I just had 4 more water crackers because I just did a big run and I'm starving.

I had a fill today which explains the tiny dinner, I normally eat a lot more than that.

I want real food! I'm still in lap-band hell on full liquids.

banana cream muscle milk light w/ yogurt & skim milk blended for bkfst,

20 oz Isopure grape frost protein drink..I love these 45 gms protein!

(been drinking that all day)

lunch was 1/2 C cr. of chicken soup, no chicken.

3 oz peach lowfat yogurt later in the afternoon.

Dinner will probably be soup again.

I always start my day with a protein shake. They have 25 grams in them. I also ate a chicken soft taco from Taco Bell today. It took me about 45 minutes to eat the entire thing.

I had a banana, peanut butter, chocolate protein powder smoothie from Juice Stop for brunch. I am having Zesty Nachos from Taco Bell for dinner. Not the most nutritious day. I am just feeding my cravings. I need sweet and spicy today...looks like I took care of that.

Decaf blueberry tea this morning, then when I got the go to proceed to full liquids, my protein drink (1/2 scoop protein powder, 1/2 c. skim milk), strained cream of chicken soup, sugar free grape popsicle, protein milkshake (1/2 scoop protein powder, 1/2 c. sugar free vanilla ice cream, 1/2 c. skim milk), and now sipping reduced calorie grape juice. And of course, plenty of water in between throughout the day:)

Breakfast - Slimfast & coffee

lunch - 3 eggs and a low-fat sausage link

1.5 hour workout

1 cup of grape juice

dinner - 3 oz. Baked cod and 1 corn cobbette

Dessert - 1 mini Blue Bell ice cream cone (90 calories - yum!)

I'm a week out so I'm in FULL liquid HELL lol but today I had:
