Is PB 2 OK?



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Thanks for answering all my questions. I am arranging the pantry and I keep finding things that I wonder if they are legal or not. I have 3 jars of PB 2 and would love to add it to Protein Shakes. If you haven't heard of it, PB 2 is a lower fat peanut powder that you can add to stuff or use to make Peanut Butter. Would it be sleeve friendly?

Thanks for your input!

I looked up the nutritional information, and that stuff looks pretty good. I would ask your surgeon, but I don't why it would not be acceptable.

I bet it would add some great flavor to Protein drinks.

PB2 is INCREDIBLE stuff! I used to buy it by the case and take it to support group meetings...lol. I'd sell out a case in about 15 minutes.

Most people add it to Protein shakes, or add it to plain yogurt. I also just reconstituted it and spread it on celery or really toasted whole wheat english muffins. Use it to make a great lowfat peanut sauce. There are some great recipes to use it on their website Bell Plantation - PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter and More! and HungryGirl.com.

It's a great Protein source to add to a carepack going to our armed forces too.

In fact I think Bell Plantation is doing that through some sort of government program.

Don't be afraid to try it, it's wonderful!

      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!
