Keeping breakfast interesting



Recommended Posts

My question is to all the post op guys and gals out there. How are you keeping it inyerestung in your breakfast..... im one of the lucky few who doesnt do well with scrambled eggs so i learned that egg white omlettes are my very best friend but a guy can only eat so many egg white omlettes..... and recipes or ideas out there that youd be willing to share to help out? Keep in mind I work 8 to 5 everyday so cooking for 3 hours before i go to work isnt really an option.

Thanks guys and gals!

Just found a fun site for bariatric recipes, actually. There are some fun breakfasts here:)

https://www.bariatricfoodie.com/recipe-index/

My go-to Breakfast when I don't have time to cook is half a Premiere Protein caramel shake in a big mug of coffee with a wasa toast smeared with a tablespoon of Peanut Butter.

Cottage cheese is breakfast worthy. With a little fruit or salsa, it gets the protein grams in.

I'm a huge fan of no-sugar maple oatmeal packets with a few almonds or pecans, too.

I usually eat an egg white omelette, but keep it interesting by changing what's in it. Sausage and cheese are my go to's, but you can put all kinds of stuff in it. Turkey or ham are good, peppers or other veggies.

Otherwise Chobani Greek yogurt is quick and easy and comes in a lot of flavors.

My wife makes yogurt for me, both regular and greek. I usually throw a teaspoon of honey in there for a nice hint at sweet, or maybe a small spoon of some preserves. I do that and a couple cheese sticks, easy peasy.

I also use premiere Protein Shakes if I am running late and need to consume on my way to work.

I have also added Fairlife chocolate milk to my coffee in the morning to offset the Water deficit and get a little Protein in at the same time.

Monday through Friday I eat a greek yogurt every morning for breakfast and then have a Protein Shake about 1 1/2 hours later.

Weekends I am usually a little looser with my breakfast. I will have Cream of Wheat, turkey bacon and eggs, Protein Cereal, oatmeal

      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!!
