What do you bring to work/school for lunch? 

Also, is this to much: half a pita bread (large pita bread) and half a can of tuna with mayo. Im 6 weeks post op. I think im eating to much. I feel hungry sometimes but I never get a full feeling due to nerves not being healed yet. 

I wasn't allowed bread for 6mths, so on that you have to go by what your surgeon says.

I love soft cheeses (laughing cow light), tuna, egg and chicken salad (I used FF Mayo or Greek yogurt); there are some small "crustless quiches" on www.theworldaccordingtoeggface.com and Nik has a huge recipe index at www.bariatricfoodie.com

 at 6 weeks I was still on the soft food stage and was not allowed breads.  i would eat about 2 ounces of tuna with some low fat mayo and maybe some veggies. 

i'm 4 months out and i typically eat either cottage cheese and fruit for lunch, or a vegan burger and veggie or fruit.

i haven't really had bread products yet.  

I usually have one piece of bread and some ham or roast beef (with mustard).  I have a diet drink and a greek yogurt.

Are you eating too much....well - how long does it take you to eat what you have above?  For me that would take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours at 6 weeks out.  I was feeling full so I didn't have the same issue.  I would focus on your protein grams and fluids this early out.

 I know its horrible, but I eat that within half hour. I havent had any problems with eating at all. I try to eat slow but I never feel sick or the stuck feeling.  I really wish I had the full feeling so I could know my limit. 

 i am 8 weeks i have a half of a thin whole wheat bagel toasted till crisp with teaspoon of sf jelly or 2 low fatcottage cheese for breakfast then one low fat baked egg roll or 2 ounces of plaintuna for lunch also i sometimes have crab cake or lobster cake 2 ozs at walmart they in the meatsection 1 gr fat 8 carbs and 10 protien 

I'm about 20 weeks out and I eat 2 oz of dense protein; beef, chicken, pork. Or leftovers. Like earlier this week I made cauliflower crust pizza and I've been eating the leftovers, 2 oz, everyday. I don't eat bread, to scared it'll get stuck.

Maybe talk to your dietician about quantity? Mine told me I could start wraps, toast and pita's, but didn't mention quantity. The only problem is, if I try having a wrap, I dump--I had maybe 3 bites of shredded chicken with fatfree mayo in a wrap, and dumped. Been dumping a lot with the more solid foods. Lucky you are able to keep the pita down! I had surgery March 5th..so I guess I'm around 8-9 weeks out now?

But I've been bringing leftovers for lunch---chicken with mashed potatoes and veggies, soup, deli meats...that type of stuff.  I stopped with the cottage cheese a while ago. I got sick with a nasty flu bug and went 'off' a lot of foods.

Oh, but I also make an awesome lasgna. But I use cabbage instead of noodles. Tastes just like regular lasagna to me. The only problem is I'm single and live on my own so had to freeze two-thirds of it. Could only handle having it for lunch and dinner so many days in a row.

I don't think that is to much but I did't eat bread.  I am allow to but prefer crackers.  I am glutten free and glutten free bread would have been to much on my tummy at 6 weeks out.  I would eat more tuna and skip the bread.

I'm over 2 years out. I bring 4.25 ounces of sliced turkey from the deli (Columbus peppered turkey) and baby carrot sticks. At 6 weeks out I could do toast but it filled me really quickly. I try to stick more to protein and complex carbs.

 I eat 2-4 ounces of some kind of protein.  I listen carefully to my full signals, and I don't try to eat quickly, although half hour sounds about right for most of my meals.  

I can eat half a Jimmy John's Unwich or 1/3-1/2 of a small Wendy's chili with cheese.  I've begun to try to eat some restaurant food composed of meet and vegetables.   I did buy some low carb wraps tonight and I have tried some carbquik pancakes.  

I stop eating when my breath catches.... which is my full signal.

Lately I have been eating half of an Orowheat 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich thin and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter. That's 10 grams of protein and usually fills me up.

I either have a slice of P28 bread toasted w/peanutbutter, cheese sticks and lunch meat, I love the wheat thin flat bread crackers, Ieat two of them and laughing cow light cheese with roast beef on top.....or leftovers are always good...I have protein w/ fruit each day for breakfast, I have protein w/ veggies for dinner, and I try to have protein with grain for lunch most days..I have 2 snacks most days, one of which is often a protein shake or protein bar....I am almost 10 months out and eating all food groups in a meal can add difficulty with getting in my protein so I break it up and it works well for me.

I sometimes make pizza on a corn tortilla and can eat almost all of it....I just don't do it often.

I try to stay away from bread as much as possible.  However, normally i will have 1 slice of whole wheat or rye toast in the morning with peanut butter (the natural one) or egg salad, or light cheese.

when I ge to work I will have a light latte from starbucks.

Then when I get hungry again, I will have a low fat yogurt or greek yorgurt with a few almonds and bran flakes mixed in

For lunch to work this is what I do:  I make a big pot of soup on the weekends,  I put in a large pot, carrots, potatoe, turnip, any hard vegatable you like, and let them boil until soft...add some salt (very little or stock cube) to the water and a garlic clove (garlic is good for you)...when it's soft I blend it all, add 2 cans of washed beans, lentils, chick peas, fava beans, anything like that...I then add some spinach (last pot added 2 bags of the already cleaned stuff), a little olive oil and really good soup...I put them in small tupperwear containers (about 2/3 cup size for me) and freeze them.  In the morning I pull one out and pop it in with a yogurt to work.  When I get to work I leave it defrosting on my desk and zap it in the microwave for lunch. 

for my afternoon snack I usually have fruit, or more yogurt or sometimes a low calorie bran bar.  

dinner, usually veggies and meat of some kind or salad. 

Evening snack, a decaf latte with skim milk.... 

This usually works for me...but everyone is different...and my surgery is also different than yours.  However if I stick to this I am usually good!
