I plan on having a shake on the 20 minute commute every day.

Water in between clients.

hard boiled eggs, egg salad, chili, yogurt, meatballs, tuna salad, chicken salad, crab dip...all great options. any other ideas? i'm SURE i'm over looking all sorts of options. i'm on softs now and doing great but trying hard to incorporate all the 'requirements' of Protein, carbs, fats, water, that my nut outlined.

i only have a couple days left so no time to buy anything on internet for now, but that's an option later on. i just want to get back into a solid groove and get my eating in! thanks

cheese and turkey/ham rollups are yummy, as are cheese sticks. I was banded in 2012, and just had a hernia repair- band totally unfilled, so I'm back to the beginning with being filled again. I got a bento box lunchbox on amazon, it has little compartments- sometimes a new something or other is motivating, like buying new exercise clothes.

Good luck! Oh, I just saw you're a sleeve pt, I'm banded, but same Protein ideas!

Looks like you're off to a good start!

My surgery was in June also. I haven't been able to eat any of what you listed. I can only eat half of a poached egg. I went back to work this week. Thankfully I have a Dorm refrigerator in my office. My main source of Protein is Isopure.....40 grams of protein a bottle.....I mix a little of Crystal Light in with it. The other source I turn to is cottage cheese. I also drop cheese on parchment paper and bake until the edges turn brown...makes cheese chips...aprox 7 grams of protein each. I keep them in a ziplock bag on my desk.

What kind of cheese do you use to bake? This sounds delish!

P3 packs are a good on the go choice.

Sometimes I carry a little cooler and will keep some cheese and turkey pepperoni slices. I almost always have a Protein bar tucked away, just in case. I've been packing beef Jerky lately and I enjoy that as a snack.

The other foods you list are great choices as well!
