I Need More Protein. Please Help!



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have the same problem but if you have a Sama near you they sell a Hugh bag for $34. It comes in vanilla and chocolate . It had has 18 grams of Protein in it. You might try that. If your near a costco I bet they carry it too. Good luck! I'm with you.?

Nobody has mentioned the one I like - Body Fortress Super Advanced whey Protein. I've had chocolate and strawberry and they provide 26 g of protein and only 8 g of carb. I have to say, though, they taste really good when made with skim milk but not so good with Water. The milk adds protein, though. I don't care for Muscle Milk and cannot stand yogurt no matter how many times I try it with different stuff added, it just tastes spoiled to me.

I buy Muscle Milk Light from Walmart. It is ready to drink and comes in four pack. I love not having to mix them. They are low in fat and 100 calories. I also buy Jay Robb protien powder from Fry's or Kroger. It taste good an they have a few different flavors.

I agree with Daddyof4... the Body Fortress powder that you get at Walmart for about $15 is great. I bought one of those Magic Bullet things at Bed Bath and Beyond and I mix them up ahead of time with a teaspoon of sugar-free instant pudding and some ice and keep them in the refrigerator and by the time I'm ready to drink them they are all thick and creamy like a milkshake and they taste wonderful. I haven't tried the strawberry flavor yet but next time I go to buy some I'll get it, I've heard good things about it and look forward to trying it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
