Breakfast ideas and other stuff
Hi friends,
I would rather sleep late than get up and cook breakfast. (This will
not change so please don’t write back suggesting that I get up
earlier…I need help not criticism please.)
I need help on preparing quick, protein rich breakfast foods. I have
a microwave at work and a refrigerator. I eat cottage cheese and milk
and cereal but can’t think of anything else that will give me protein
and requires little or no preparation. I can eat most anything.
Please help. I am missing breakfast because I don’t know what to eat!
Sorry to throw this in with the subject of food…but I also would
like the answer to this question. Does anybody know what that clear,
mucus-like stuff is that some of us seem to (please excuse me here)
vomit up?
Thanks dear, dear friends.
Make your holidays be healthy and happy.

My milestone: I tried on three consecutively smaller sizes of jeans
before I found a pair that fit. I thought the jeans fit badly because
they were cheap! It never occured to me they were too big!

For breakfast think outside the box. You do NOT need to eat breakfast foods.
You can eat beef jerky, cheese, yogurt (homemade or sweetned with
nutrasweet), CIB, protein bar (if you so desire — I hate them), chili from
Wendy’s or make your own and bring it in. You can EAT anything you want for
breakfast that has protein. Don’t limit yourself to “breakfast” foods.
Seriously. As for the stuff we vomit it, it could be saliva.

Here are a couple of suggestions:
Brown & Serve Sausage Links - you can buy them already cooked and
kept in the freezer. Just take a couple of links out, stick them in
the microwave, and 1 to 2 minutes later, you are done.
Ham and Cheese - I buy deli sliced ham and cheese and take a couple
of slices of each, roll them together, and eat. You could also get
turkey or chicken or any other deli meat. And you could leave off
the cheese if you don’t like it.
Boiled Eggs - Boil 4 or 5 eggs, then put them back in the fridge.
Take one out in the morning, peel it and eat. You only have to do
the boiling once or twice a week.
String Cheese - It’s already packaged in individual pieces. Just
grab one or two of them on your way out the door.
Leftovers - whatever protein you ate for dinner last night, eat it
again in the morning.
The way I look at it, is that breakfast doesn’t have to consist of
traditional breakfast food. Any food you eat for lunch or dinner is
fair game for breakfast.
Hope this helps!

This post caught my eye because I’ve become addicted to Wendy’s chili and
chicken nuggets. I know the chicken nuggets have to go … but the chili is
okay?

I still eat Wendy’s Chili. And I still eat chicken fingers….not fast food
chicken nuggets, but the larger chicken fingers at Bob Evan’s for instance.
I did have a distal RNY and don’t absorb much of the fat though.

Chili is good because it has a lot of protein in the beans and such. many
people on this list have lived on Chili during the pureed state of the diet.
Now this doesn’t mean order a supersize portion but eating a small cup of
chili for lunch/breakfast is fine. As for the chicken nuggets if you could
get a grilled chicken breast, cut it into strips that would be fine and you
could use spices to flavor it however you want. Just a suggestion.

hey!! Do you actually PUREE the Chili, or is it pureed enough with lots of
chewing?? I LOVE Chili, and wanna go get some now!!

Has anyone noticed that Wendy’s chili has changed recently? It now has
almost NO meat in it, at least where I live…….it is almost like chili
beef soup in consistency. I used to get that as a last-minute meal, if for
some reason I was out and did not have time to prepare a dinner….but it was
SO disappointing the last time I bought it….and I even tried it one more
time, thinking it had been a fluke, but it was just as soupy….so, that is
it for me.
