I drink a Protein shake for breakfast and lunch and then eat a normal dinner and sometimes a snack at night.

Otherwise, eggs are a good choice.

My "go to" breakfast choices are ground turkey, pesto and cheese, cubed ham, an egg and cheese; leftover dinner from the night befor. If I'm going for a run, I typically have 1/4 steel cut oats mixed with 1/3 milk, half a carton of greek yogurt and a tbs of Peanut Butter. I agree that breakfast doesn't need to be traditional "breakfast" food.

Plain oatmeal (add sweetener) and some FF Fairlife milk, turkey bacon, Greek yogurt, Apple w/ Peanut Butter (natural or Jif Whips), Yams, cheese.< /p>

Oh yeah, and plain FF Fage yogurt with PB2 powder, tastes pretty good, tons of Protein.< /p>

All of this depends on the phase you're in..

Bacon bacon and more bacon. Premier Protein vanilla shake is the Creamer in my coffee. Sometimes eggs. But I swear if I am having a stall, if I increase my bacon intake the lbs start melting off again[emoji6]

My Breakfast now reflect where I'm at.....smack dab in the middle of weight loss mode.....so there are few carbs....and yes, I sometimes have leftover grilled foods.

This morning I had two fried eggs over easy and three slices of bacon. I used salt free Chef Paul's seasoning and Tobasco Sauce on the eggs.< /p>

Some mornings it's just a Protein shake to drink on the way to work.

I'm not going to have any types of breads or oatmeal until I am beyond my goal and living at maintenance. Then....a frequent breakfast will be a piece of well toasted wheat bread with a pair of fried (over easy) eggs on top. Good stuff.

I love eggs. But I eat my breakfast at work and my boss does not allow eggs and fish in the office. Breakfast use to be my favorite meal before surgery. And now I can't find my self good breakfast ideas.

Please help me understand your boss's rationale for such rules ?

The smell throughout the office I suspect... It can be awful in some cases. At least it is in our office.

Fish, I get, but eggs?

No popcorn was a rule where I once worked. We had a lady who liked it burnt in the microwave. Oh gawd, the stench.

I don't get it either. I've never known eggs to be foul.

Burnt popcorn, though.......horrid stuff. Happens all the time where I work. The break area has pair of microwaves....each a different size and wattage....one has rotary feature....other does not. People are always goofing up the cooking times needed between the two.

The struggle is real.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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
