100+lbs Later.. Here’s Breakfast!

Breakfast doesn’t have to be complicated.

Today’s plate:

🥚 Canadian bacon, spinach & shredded cheese omelette

🫐 Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries & blackberries)

After losing 100+ lbs following VSG, I’ve learned that building my meals around protein first helps keep me satisfied longer while still enjoying foods I love.

This isn’t about perfection—it’s about finding meals that fit your lifestyle and that you can actually stick with.

What’s your go-to high-protein breakfast? ☕️

... Read moreAfter successfully losing over 100 pounds following Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG), I've realized that the key to maintaining my weight loss and feeling energized throughout the day starts with a protein-focused breakfast. Protein helps control hunger and stabilizes blood sugar, making it easier to avoid mid-morning cravings and unhealthy snacking. Incorporating a simple omelette with Canadian bacon, spinach, and shredded cheese is not only convenient but also packs a solid protein punch. Canadian bacon offers a leaner alternative to traditional bacon, reducing excess fat while still providing savory flavor. Spinach adds fiber and essential nutrients without many calories. Adding shredded cheese not only boosts protein but also adds a creamy texture that makes the meal satisfying. Complementing the omelette with a vibrant mix of berries like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries introduces antioxidants and natural sweetness that brighten the plate. These fruits add fiber and important vitamins without spiking blood sugar. The best part about this approach is its simplicity and adaptability — you don't need complex recipes or hard-to-find ingredients to build a breakfast that supports your goals. This balance makes it easier to stick with nutritious habits long term, which is crucial for sustaining weight loss after surgery. If you're on a similar weight loss path or just looking to improve your morning routine, prioritizing protein with whole foods like eggs, lean meats, vegetables, and berries is a practical way to start. Over time, you can explore variations—maybe swap in different veggies, try other low-fat cheese options, or add herbs for more flavor. The key is consistency and making meals that feel enjoyable and feasible for your lifestyle. What I love most is that this method respects the need for enjoyment while being mindful of health—a balance that many find challenging but rewarding once achieved. Remember, breakfast doesn’t need complexity to be powerful; it just needs the right fuel to keep you moving through your day confidently.
