Breakfast Ideas? Tired of Protein Shakes

I'm 2 months post op and getting tired of protein shakes for breakfast. What are some ideas of what everyone is eating? I'm not sure how scrabbled eggs will go down. I hear some people have problems with them.

I'll be 3 weeks post op tomorrow and have had egg 3 times in the past week without a problem. Try a few bites.

There was a multi-page post on this over in the general food forum a few days ago. Not all the ideas would be appropriate for your stage, but there are some good ones there, plus recipes! And what you can't use now, you can keep in mind for later.

I was approved for soft scrambled eggs immediately after surgery - they didn't bother me at all (to make them soft, just a little bit of milk).

My daily breakfast is a Jimmy Dean Turkey sausage patty and one scrambled egg with a little cheese on top. When I was at 2 months I couldn't finish all of this - I could probably finish 1/2 or 3/4 of this. I still have this for breakfast almost every day and now can finish all of it. It satisfies me for a few hours until I can eat again.

I also purchased some oatmeal from Pantry Selections (www.mybariatricpantry.com) - it has 15 grams of Protein. It tastes great. I add a little bit of banana (like 1/4 of a small banana) and a couple of chopped walnuts.
