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

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
