I think this is a great idea. I find myself eating ham or chicken for breakfast, it is not always a breakfast food

Hello: I am one month post op with RNY. Right now I cannot have vegetables or fruit. I find myself eating a lot of soft cheese. Also I am eating turkey bacon, sausage, and chicken. I have had problems with ground beef and meatballs. I guess I find myself eating the same things over and over. At first I was eating 3oz of refried beans and 3 oz of chicken salad and 3 oz of pimento cheese. If I fix something for myself like chicken salad I will eat it for a few days, but then I have to throw the rest away because I cannot eat all of it before it goes bad.
Any ideas of what I can eat that would be different? I am supposed to be eating high protein foods. Also I have been eating eggs and egg salad. Guess I am just looking for some variety in my food choices? Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.!!
