This morning I had a scrambled egg and 1/4 cup fresh strawberries. I am just starting to add in fruit and I'm being very cautious. This is my first time with strawberries (except the occasional Tblsp in oatmeal).

Well my sleeve wasn't ready for the strawberries. A day close to home????. Oh well guess I can't complain too much. I weigh tomorrow!!

Oh chorizo sounds great. I have never cooked it myself, only had it at restaurants. My favorite mexican meal.

Hormel precooked bacon has really good stats. I use it for convenience with an egg scrambled in morning.

Bacon and chorizo! YUM! I actually had both today but I also did a triathlon so def burned it off.

I'm a boring Protein shake most mornings. Sometimes it's just powder in Water (syntrax matrix usually) sometimes it's frozen fruit, plain Fage yogert and fair life milk. Sometimes I put Peanut Butter in it.

Sometimes I do a small bowl of oatmeal w Protein Powder in it.

Sometimes I make a low carb pancake from ricotta, Protein Powder and maybe some flax meal or almond meal or coconut flour. Top with Greek yogert.

Sometimes I have a scrambled egg with cheese and salsa or Sriracha or avocado.

Often I have leftovers from dinner!

Around 8am Im either sipping on a Protein Shake ( Protein Powder, PB2, 1/2 frozen banana, Vitamins, almond milk , all together in a Ninja mjxer) or nibbling on almonds, Breakfast biscuits and / or turkey Jerky. At my 10 am break I have 4 Wheat Thins w/PB and some Swiss Miss cocoa. Im then good until lunch (healthy leftovers ).

@@maggie409 - pretty much eat either 2 scrambled eggs with a slice of cheese melted in it on weekends. Hubby likes to eat out so I order eggs and sometimes I get half of a 4 inch smoked link too. That's if he orders it on his plate.

During the week its a Protein shake (25 to 30 protein) or a cup of coffee and a pure Protein Bar (20 grams protein). I get up at 330am to go to work. I am not always hungry but I do try to either start with my Protein Drink or regular Water as soon as I get up. I am drinking about 100 oz a day.

This morning I had a hard boiled egg and a piece of toast with a schmear of Brummel & Brown. And coffee. Most weekday mornings, though, it's yogurt or cottage cheese.

My work has a cafeteria. M-F I have 1 egg scrambled with spinach and Tomato. Probably 3 days out of 5 I get a sausage link. I had been skipping the sausage but my skin and hair was getting dry. I realized I wasn't getting enough fat in my diet.

Weekends I will have a Protein shake or left overs from dinner. Yesterday, I had the day off and had a half cup of split pea Soup that had some ham in it.

Usually it’s Greek yogurt with some fruit, often blueberries if I have them around. Thankfully I don’t seem to be especially sensitive to fruit – it doesn’t make me hungrier or anything. I keep my portions reasonable but don’t measure – I haven’t for years. Luckily the Greek yogurt comes in individually portioned cups so I don’t have to worry about it.

My most recent breakfasts have been this... On Sunday's I cook up a batch of veggie bacon or sausage patties (I'm vegetarian), and boil a pot of eggs. Then on weekdays for work I grab an egg and either the bacon or sausage patty, and take to work and eat at my desk.

Before I was on this kick, I was eating a Greek yogurt with walnuts or almonds mixed in, or a Protein shake most mornings.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
