I'm tighter in the morning so eggs and stuff don't go down too well for me. I drink my premier nutrition shake (Costco) which has 30 grams of Protein. i like Breakfast foods so on the weekends, I have my shake when I get up and then have a little omelette or some other type of egg dish more towards lunch time. Chobani greek yogurt has 14grams of Protein so that's a good choice too.

I just saw an ad on this site for unjury protein that has no taste. It says you can mix it with anything. That might be an option for you.

I just purchased some Unjury products and tried them. I will be ordering more. unjury also makes a protein cheese sauce that you can pour over eggs or veggies. Very good. It's got 20 g protein per half cup.

salmon, tuna, eggs, turkey breast, greek yogurt. be sure to try to get your Protein by eating not drinking most of the time. we are changing our habits and planning good food choices is part of that.

At this point I'm still required to drink Protein Shakes. But I think reading labels can be very good because you can sometimes boost high Protein items by mixing them with other products. Like sprinkling Koshi on greek yogurt. Or adding some protein cheese to a meat. It just takes experimenting to find the balance.

I really enjoy the Unjury products. Even though they are more expensive than I can get at my local Target they are very good. Plus they have a bigger selection than my store.

I too love the Unjury. I don't want to drink my calories, but being tighter in the morning it's a great way to get breakfast in with a good amount of Protein. If you want to try the unjury, they have a sampler pack with 2 chocolate, 2 vanilla, 2 strawberry, 2 unflavored and 2 chicken broth- good to try before you buy, for sure!!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
