My comment would be that this is rather high in fat (cholesterol). While everyone is different, I would recommend cutting your higher fat protein (sausage & Cheese) in half and replacing that volume with some healthy veggies and fruits. -

Thank you, Lady J, for your response!!
I WAS eating vegetables instead of meats, but when I had my last fill on Tuesday, I was told to eat meats/proteins before anything else, to make a good layer of that, and THEN eat vegetables if I'm still hungry.
That's why I ate the low-fat Boca Burger and low-fat cheese.

Bullwinkle - have you tried to snack on hard boild eggs? I know some people can't do them, and I haven't even tried to yet, but I was going to give it a go for breakfast instead of my usual protein shake. I get hungry within an hour of drinking the shake...

kimmom - that is a great idea. i've been wondering what others are eating and trying to get new ideas. i've been eating the same way as you are - i like the ground chicken in a can ( like tuna ) and pureed carrots. also, i make alot of cream soups.

i don't really do the full breakfast, lunch, dinnner - i am more of a grazer.
but here's what i took in today. btw - i've lost 15 lbs since banding on 7/31.
- medium (20 oz.) iced coffee w/ skim milk and splenda (nursed over about an hour)
- 4 oz. orange sherbert
- 6 pretzel chips - chewed into powder w/ 2 tbs hummus
- shake/smoothie (made with unflavored protien powder - a LIFESAVER if you don't have much of a sweet tooth!, cran-peach juice, oj, frozen strawberries, frozen peaches)
- 2 oz. chicken
- 2 biscuts (chewed and smushed)
i feel a bit tight, but i am trying to get enough calories to not feel so spacey.
