Do you eat breakfast???



Recommended Posts

I seem to be just opposite from most bandsters; I have to eat Breakfast, but am very tight at night - possibly from the stress of work all day and because it's very hot in my house when I get home. I like microwaved eggs on weekends, with some cheese; I just got my first fill three days ago and am trying to figure out how to get lots of Protein in for Breakfast. powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes may be a good idea.

Any other ideas for high Protein breakfasts on weekdays?

I have been trying to eat a very runny scrambled egg in the morning but have not been able to tolerate it; wonder if I should try skipping breakfast as so many say they cannot tolerate anything in the morning & just stick to a Protein Shake? ??

Anybody else have problems with eggs?

My stomach has always been that way. If i eat breakfast I am hungry all day long! Since the band I maybe eat something b4 work 2-3 times a week-and then it is a small bowl of cheerios and skim milk! Other wise it will be lunch b4 I eat!

4 me,

I haven't been able to eat eggs since my surgery almost 2 yrs ago no matter if I am extremely tight or completely loose. I miss them sometimes too. That doesn't mean you will always have a problem with them though.

I have a small bowl of soupy oatmeal every morning and then my coffee about a half hour later. Helps with my equillibrium. I generally don't try eating until 9 or 10 in the morning as i'm pretty tight up to that point. A nice cup of warm Water with lemon juice tends to help this first thing, so by the time I actually have my oatmeal it goes down easier.

Right now i'm pretty tight (bless Dr. Maese in Dallas!!!). I have a great fill and am as close to my 'sweet spot' as i've ever been so its good that i've been able to have breakfast in the morning.

I'm glad I read this thread. I am finally on real foods (as opposed to full liquids) and not yet filled. I am having trouble finding high Protein foods for breakfast other than eggs. Unlike most of you, I am hungry in the morning and find that if I eat a fairly large breakfast than I am not so hungry later in the day. Anyone have more suggestions for high protein breakfast foods - I don't like hot cereals. Thanks

I am also on the night shift and there is no set schedule as to when

I eat my meals. I usually wake up about 3pm then have dinner with

the family. Then around 12:30am I have my lunch and have a small

meal when I'm home around 7:30am. I haven't been banded yet. Aug.

3 is the big day. Maybe after the band things will change I'm so messed

up now with broken sleep. Sometimes I eat just to try and stay awake.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
