Hi all

I've been very slack the past month or so and have been skipping Breakfast. I generally have a coffee in the morning and don't eat until around late morning/lunch time.

I'm 15 weeks post op and have been losing quite steadily since my op. I leave the house at 6am to start work at 7am and I have no interest in eating anything at that time.

Does everyone here eat breakfast? If so, what do you eat? And have you found it hinders or helps your weight loss?

I know everyone says breakfast is the most important meal of the day but I wonder if this rings true for weight loss patients.

I don't "eat" breakfast but I have a Protein latte. I run through the Starbucks drive-thru and order triple espresso over ice in a venti cup and add either a premier vanilla or caramel shake. It's how I start every work day. I'm just not great at eating in the mornings so this routine works for me.

I'm prone to nausea in the morning but do better when I eat. Pre-op, I'd blend up some Chike mocha Protein shake with hemp seeds. Post-op, that's too much lactose and effort so I keep rtd coffee Protein shakes in the fridge - very thin, not too sweet - and try to get one down fairly early.

7am: Protein latte - 15g protein

10am (ish) - either left overs from dinner the night before or greek yoghurt/nuts/protein bar or other snack.

I can't do without my latte drink now, i love it and it fills me up!

You guys make me wish i drank coffee lol. Not a huge coffee fan but i love tea. I honestly hardly ever eat Breakfast. I usually either don't feel like it or no time. But usually if i have it I'd start with a Protein shake. For some reason its just easier to get down instead of food first meal of the day.

Have you ever used vanilla Protein powder to make a tea latte? I make an iced chai latte or Thai tea most mornings!

I just brew some chai tea, let it cool or add ice and 1 scoop of Quest vanilla Protein powder. In a shaker bottle and add Water for the consistency that I need. No need to sweeten, quest has a sweet taste already!
