bandgroupie Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Bran muffin Yogurt Fruit and cheese ?????? I have no idea what I will eat after I have my first fill. For now, I'm back to drinking a Slim Fast Optima shake for breakfast. okay so before my band i would eat a bagel everyday for breakfast What's the first thing dr.

snowbird Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I make oatmeal with diced walnuts and a small handful of blueberries and a shake of cinnamon. Put some sugar free pancake syrup on the top and it is yummy.
scared Posted May 2, 2008 Author Report Posted May 2, 2008 mmmmmmmmm thats sounds good....thanks for the suggestions.... It's so hard to think of new things to eat and have them taste good ...especially when ur not to creative like me...
LoraLW Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 Scared, its good to hear from you. Enjoy your day of food, I know I will. Cream of Wheat is also good and they come in various flavors now. Keep us posted.
Paula Bee Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 I have always had questions about breakfast because of the "divide the plate into 4 sections" rule. One section is green vegetables.. I am NOT going to eat green vegetables for breakfast... at least not a half a cup. A few tossed on an omlet is one thing, but 1/2 cup? ....
Dontondan Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 I am usually tight in the mornings and am lucky to get just a packet of oatmeal, or a scrambled egg in!
Claire Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 How about a good old fashioned scrambled egg? Yummy

nicolek Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Hi I ususally have a protein shake with a banana blended in if I'm feeling tight. A hard boiled egg. ( I find it works better than scrambled.) Cottage cheese with fruit. Nicolek
BigLittle Posted July 16, 2008 Report Posted July 16, 2008 I make oatmeal with diced walnuts and a small handful of blueberries and a shake of cinnamon. Put some sugar free pancake syrup on the top and it is yummy. IVE BEEN TOLD THAT ALL NUTS ARE A NO NO.. I was told by my Dr. Dr Simpson that nuts dont break down and small bits can get stuck in the pouch and cause complications. He said just best to avoid all types of nuts.. And he is pretty liberal on what you can and cannot eat..
julieburns Posted July 16, 2008 Report Posted July 16, 2008 IVE BEEN TOLD THAT ALL NUTS ARE A NO NO.. I was told by my Dr. Dr Simpson that nuts dont break down and small bits can get stuck in the pouch and cause complications. He said just best to avoid all types of nuts.. And he is pretty liberal on what you can and cannot eat.. Thanks for that info. I wonder what Dr. Miranda or Dr. Ortiz think. I know they are hard to digest and this makes good sense. But no nuts forever........and ever again. I'd be ................NUTS!!!!!!!!
Allcdngirl Posted July 16, 2008 Report Posted July 16, 2008 Now that sounds good!!! I make oatmeal with diced walnuts and a small handful of blueberries and a shake of cinnamon. Put some sugar free pancake syrup on the top and it is yummy.
Allcdngirl Posted July 16, 2008 Report Posted July 16, 2008 I know that Almonds don't go down well with me, but I as well hope that I will be able to eat other nuts. I haven't tried yet. Nuts are such a good source of protein and good fats.
Pattydesigns Posted August 8, 2008 Report Posted August 8, 2008 Hello, I haven't had surgery, I'm debating yet, however I found PRO-NOS protein complex, 42 grams of protein per serving, and it was on special at GNC buy on get one 50% off. They are very tasty. I guess I'm trying to see if I can follow the diet requirements. Patty
