Breakfast anyone?



Recommended Posts

I got to add cottage cheese in last Sunday, and at Loopylulu's suggestion, I added in 1 tablespoon of sugar free strawberry preserves. It is awesome. I have that first thing in the morning now.

I get to add in scrambled eggs today (yay!). I went ahead and had the cottage cheese first thing this morning since my partner is still sleeping and I want us to actually be able to eat the same thing at the same time for the first time in a while.

So, scrambled eggs will be lunch!

No idea. I try to choke down a shake, then skip to my mid morning string cheese. I have half a cup of unsweetened applesauce each morning to take meds.

I'm looking forward to high Fiber Cereal. Never craved raisin bran like this!!!

This time of year my favorite sugar cereal is out : Count Chocula ( followed by Boo berry and Frankenberry respectively) since I'm not physically hungry, resisting is easier. However it won't cross into my house. That would be too tempting at the moment

For ME, cereal and milk was always a favorite. I was a multi-grain cheerios kind of girl and like more milk than cereal.

I can't eat it now. Eating and then drinking makes me immediately urp and cereal and milk feels much like the same as do broth based Soups.

I'm a bit farther out than this conversation, but I do have a stricture so while I can eat normal foods, they often get stuck so I prefer to eat soft and mushy to this day. Refried Beans and cheese is a great Breakfast, especially with a bit of sour cream. Served with a soft scrambled egg and hot sauce? Heaven.

I don't feel the need to eat traditional meals at traditional times, so I often eat the insides of a pot pie, crustless quiche, seafood salad, cheese sticks, spam (gross but true!), meatball with mozzarella... Lots of great choices.

You'll get there. :)

Ohhh crustless quiche. Yum. I know you can make them in a muffin tin - Breakfast for a few days! (My husband would probably eat 2) but I see endless possibilities! I had corn beef hash last weekend, only 2 bites but it was pretty good.

I had really tiny pieces of sautéed chicken breast I sautéed it in coconut oil and a dash of sesame oil and just a pinch of Chinese 5 spice and smoked paprika it is so good and one chicken breast gives me a Protein for the whole entire week all I have to do is fix my EggBeater and heat my other Protein (chicken)

I have been making crustless quiche way before the sleeve. Hot or cold it is an excellent snack or meal to keep in the fridge. Fresh crabmeat quiche is a favorite.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
