LOL, I'm a one trick breakfast pony. I either have Protein Drinks of some sort or eggs.

My current squeeze is making an Egg McMuffinless "sandwich"

I also love egg white scrambles with Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage pre-cooked crumbles, spinach, mushrooms and cheese. I also like eggbites of all kinds. Eggface has a great website for those with variations.

And I make a Peanut Butter banana green smoothie with Fiber and blueberries that I love and stays with me.

Other than that, I just grab 2oz of leftover meat from a meal or from lunch meat and some grape tomatoes and call it done.

My standby:

One packet of sugar free instant oatmeal

One Tablespoon dried cherries

Half a Tablespoon pecan pieces

Splenda till it's sweet enough for ya..lol.

Eat with a big cup of coffee with 1/3 of a caramel Premier Protein shake (ok, technically, have your coffee before or after)

Total calories....about 200 Total protein....about 15g

I have two basic breakfast ideas: one is high-protein oatmeal, to which I add a little dried cranberries; the other is an egg, usually with either bacon or sausage, and a piece of rye toast. The egg can be fried, scrambled, or an omelet--either spinach and cheese, salsa and cheese, or, well, cheese.

It's tough. Sometimes I just have hard boiled eggs and coffee. Other times, I make a great microwave scrambled eggs with a bit of cheese in it--yum!! Sometimes bacon/egg/cheese on english muffin but I'm not really sure if that is the best. the crustless egg fritattas are good. And then on weekends I usually have plain greek yogurt with granola in it.

I, too, just love the Oikos Triple Zero yogurt. I have half a tub of that with a small amount of fruit most breakfasts. Otherwise a scrambled egg, sometimes with a touch of shredded parmesan cheese. I have also had slices of apple with natural Peanut Butter. I would love to branch out with new breakfast ideas too. I've never loved oatmeal, but maybe it's time to try it again.

I've tried those before and after bypass. I can do about 2 tsp of oikos zero. To sweet for me taste buds don't know why

My go to during the week is a Siggi's skyr (like Greek yogurt, but less sweet) with granola, tbsp of Unjury, and tsp of chia seeds.
On weekends I change it up to keep me from getting bored

For breakfast I usually have 1oz of oatmeal with sugar free maple Syrup and a bit of butter. It's oh so good.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
