Just looking for some new ideas not just for Breakfast but overall. Would love to hear some of your meal plans from those that have been successful in their journey.

I have a Cinnamon Twist Combat Crunch Protein Bar every morning for breakfast. On the rare occasions I go out for breakfast, I will have one scrambled egg with some feta cheese melted in and a little breakfast sausage.

I only drink my Protein shake for breakfast ...

lunch is a P3 ...

snack is peanuts ...

Protein Shake on the drive home ...

dinner is meat of some sort ...

snack is either a SF fudgesicle or 1/2 of a Protein Bar ...

and lots of Water of course!

that is pretty much it for me ...

too scared to venture to new foods right now ... did that a couple of times and didn't feel the best afterward ...

so i'll stick with what I know for now :)

EAS Protein drink (I take my meds with that) and followed by a 1/2 cup of cottage cheese

Walmart or dannon light and fit yogurt with 1/2 scoop unflavored Protein to get total of 30 grams

string cheese and lunch meat

sometimes a protein bar - trying to cut back on them. New fav is the Power Crunch salted caramel with a cup of coffee.

My go-to Breakfast is a hard-boiled egg. It's quick and easy and I can grab it on the go. My kids love them too so I always have a supply in the fridge.

I tend to mix things up frequently ... can't eat the same thing too long or I get bored & cravings kick in. Here are some of my go to's:

5 oz greek yogurt with Protein powder (adds an extra 10g) w/ small bits of fruit or berries

1/2c cottage cheese (+powder) with diced peaches

1 scrambled egg with salsa & cheese

1 chicken sausage - large (favs are the spinach & feta or apple)

1 tuna packet (premade) or 1/2c with fat free caesar dressing instead of mayo

1/2c chicken salad with plain greek yogurt instead of mayo & Mrs. Dash seasoning/flavor

In a rush I will have a Protein Drink (either EAS or Syntrax nectar fruit flavored) or when we are traveling I order a plain bagel with sausage, egg & cheese and have them put the cheese between the egg & meat. I give the hubby the bagel and eat just the egg and meat.< /p>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
