What is the best way to get our daily Protein? (aside from food of course)

Well, if you aren't getting it from protein shakes/supplements, what other way IS there? Are you still on liquids? If so, then you shouldn't be worried about calories yet. I'm sure you aren't getting in too many.. are you?

Hi Sue,

I'm eating solid food now, but you mis-understood me. I meant what are the good Protein sources aside from food.< /p>

I know shakes is one of them, but I think its very high in calories, so what are the other options (pills, powder, etc...) or maybe even some low calorie shakes IF they are avilable....

Thanks

No, I didn't misunderstand. :)

I'm just wondering why you would want to have a shake or other forms of supplements rather than food. Do you not eat meats?

I get all of my Protein from foods. Mostly animal Proteins. I eat between 60 and 100 grams of Protein per day, typcially averaging about 76grams and I eat between 800 and 1,000 calories per day. I'd rather eat real food and get my protein in than take supplements or drink shakes.

I actually love meats :)

But sometimes, I just eat small amounts of food and I feel afraid that I won't get the minimum required amount of Protein, thats why I want to make it a habit of taking these suppliments to make sure I'm getting the needed protien....

Here's an example of a normal day for me. The fish fillets are from Gortons (not breaded). The turkey and mashed potatoes meal is a Healthy Choice meal (small one without veggies and desert).

Aside from foods like tuna, ground meat, etc., I drink a shake everyday. I am tight in the mornings and my doctor says that a shake is a good source of Protein. Atkins Advantage shakes have 170 calories and 20 grams of protein. I also drink low calorie orange juice with a scoop of Protein Powder. Hope this helps.

I'm using Protein powder added to a slim fast Protein Shake for a total of 30. It is over 300 calories, though. But it is low in fat, has Fiber and is a pretty good protein bang for the buck. But I am also eating chicken and fish. But unless it is done right, I choke. I usually have my shake for Breakfast because it is fast and controls my hunger.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
