What was for breakfast this morning?



Recommended Posts

I have one egg with American cheese, and 1 piece of bacon every morning. I've worked myself up to a jumbo egg and 2 pieces of cheese, but I have done the same thing since I was allowed to have eggs during the food stages.

I boringly have a premier protien shake with coffee most every morning. Sometimes on the weekends i make a one egg omelet with morning star fake bacon and cheese. The omelet ends up cold before i can even finsh half...so its not something i do too often.

Today was my mom's birthday, so she and I went to brunch at a favorite restaurant. I got this beautiful plate with Two eggs Benedict and hash browns and fruit. It's very naughty, but an absolute favorite.

I ate most of one half muffin worth of Eggs Benedict. It was amazing. And a strawberry. And a tiny bite of Mom's birthday dessert.

Had to put the other muffin half with egg, ham and hollandaise in a box...with all of the hashbrowns and most of the fruit.

We stopped at my brother's on the way home and my nephew scarfed it down. Was very happy he did, since cold Eggs Benedict sounds kinda awful. Kid zapped it in the microwave and didn't care that the yolk cooked. LOL

The hollandaise is insanely rich, but given that I didn't even touch the hashbrowns and only ate one...I feel ok about it:)

Made curry chicken for dinner with a cucumber salad. Lighter carb free dinner balanced it all out. Daily calories and Protein were within legal limits.

And got eight miles of walking in...so feeling positive about the day's diet in spite of it.

When I started dieting in June of last year...it was hard for me to get 8000 steps in a day...which for me is a little over 3 miles.

I've been increasing my steps a little at a time for over 6 months and I'm up to about 18.000 per day...which is between 7 and 8 miles. (a little different for each person depending on your height and stride length).

So yeah...I'm talking all day, all the little walks added up. I don't walk it all in one sitting..lol:)

But the walking really has made a tremendous difference for me.

It doesn't matter if you have to start at 5000 steps, or even 3000 steps. Just start walking and tracking your progress. You'll be amazed that each day you become a little more fit. Add steps as you can tolerate them.

My Fitbit is one of my most valued tools:)

Today's Breakfast was weird. I had vegetable Soup. Homemade. Thickened with pea Protein Powder and brown rice Protein powder. With crunchy wasabi peas on top like crackers. LOL.

Odd breakfast, but it was good. I love homemade veggie soup. Had it for a snack this afternoon, too:)

I rotate through pretty much the same three or four things. A one egg omelet with .5oz mozzarella cheese and .5oz diced ham.

A hardboiled egg, sometimes with a tiny bit of butter.

Scrambled egg with mozzarella cheese.

Sometimes I have a Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage Patty or add the sausage crumbles instead of ham.

I'm very content with the breakfast...it's funny to wake up looking forward to it when I have it every day! :)

We are Breakfast doppelgängers! I also do a premier with coffee (usually decaf) most mornings and mix it up with an omelette on Saturday mornings. It’s worked well for me for the past 6 months, so I’m sticking to it! I really love the chocolate premier/coffee combo, to the point that I look forward to it. A couple days a week a top it with some whipped cream, which is heavenly.

I had some coffee, which I'm not supposed to have for another six months or so, with milk, because we're out of half and half. Then, after waiting the obligatory half hour, I had two little Jimmy Dean frittata things--they look like muffins but they're eggs, bacon, and spinach. Very easy in the microwave.

Yesterday it was one egg--I still can't eat two--and three small pieces of turkey sausage and an English muffin (another sin). I'm living in someone else's home and I'm surrounded by evil temptations--I'm moving next week and will be much, much better in a house without so much forbidden stuff around.

Sure, this may be a weak excuse. Or I'm weak. Whatever--I'm basically okay with my rate of loss and expect to lose as much again (my doctor's expectation) or more (my expectation). To some extent, I'm trying to find a way to eat that will work forever. So sometimes the carbs will sneak in. Mostly the drive to get in sufficient Protein doesn't leave much room for them.

It was Sunday morning so I made Protein pancakes flavored with flaxseed and cinnamon and topped with maple Syrup and Peanut Butter. Now I’m too full to move!

      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!!
