Maybe the little individual packets you can take to work. Take some milk in a flask and if you have a microwave heat it up. Or - right now I have a tight band AM.. so I have something called an UP and GO. Its like a liquid breakfast (I posted a pic on the post before last.) Maybe you have something like this in the US.<br /><br />Anyway, just wanted to say hi.. and congrats on being banded last month. Great going. Look forward to more posts. <br />Cara :)THE DASH!https://www.blogger.com/profile/08658679261310931377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822717385980423235.post-56884286292653067422010-03-10T12:43:50.964-08:002010-03-10T12:43:50.964-08:00Amanda, I do not do the breakfast thing either jus...Amanda, I do not do the breakfast thing either just cause I am not hungry till around 2. I eat a piece of cheese or greek yogurt with granola. Focusing on the protein is a good thing..I try and add benefiber to one of my beverages early in the day to make up for what I am lacking now. I am at pretty good restriction so I am in different place than you foodwise but just stick to high protein foods and you will be fine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822717385980423235.post-40450640920997904392010-03-10T12:39:46.316-08:002010-03-10T12:39:46.316-08:00I am not able to eat regular foods yet, I am on mu...I am not able to eat regular foods yet, I am on mushies starting today but I also have issues right now with protein. I do not get near enough protein because I just WILL NOT drink another protein shake or I will vomit! I hate them. Also I feel like all the foods I am allowed right now are full of carbs and sugar and I am stuck and have lost no weight after surgery because of it! I think Sandy had a good idea...Quiches!!!! those are yum and you can just heat them up at work. Do you have a microwave available to you at work? Hmm..IDK I hope you figure it out! I am not a breakfast person anyway so I will probably stick to yogurts or instant grits.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08011244467777606525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822717385980423235.post-37557964774034446562010-03-10T12:33:38.105-08:002010-03-10T12:33:38.105-08:00I am also having simular issues.

I was juicing everyday but have been lazy at that. Time to get back at it. I juice a whole bunch of veggies and some fruit for sweetness. It does not always taste great but I then know I am getting in my veggies.. At supper I chop up a lot of veggies and hope again I am getting enough in.. Such as in chilli, chicken stew, spagetti sauce.. Hope that helps a bit in regards to the veggies. Now I should go and make a juice.

Last week I bought one of those 24 muffin (tiny) tins and made the quiches and bran muffins with extra protein powder. Put them in baggies and froze them.<br /><br />You could also try lunch food if you feel like it and it gets through the band. I have a toaster at work but haven't been using it yet. My fav was toast and peanut butter too. I don't feel like eating anything until 9 or 10 am. I drink my 2 mugs of coffee first and then have something. <br /><br />I miss my fruits and veges (and skim milk). My doc told me yesterday that it was ok to have them as snacks and not part of my meals, so I'll get in a bit more fruit and milk and see how the weightloss goes. Right now after my first fill, I am really tight and can't get much down. I feel stuffed at the moment and ate almost 2 hours ago. Guess the band is working.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400904095865742386noreply@blogger.com
