32 of the Yummiest Grams of Protein in One Sitting!



Recommended Posts

Calories 280

Carbs 42

Fat 1

Protein 25

Actually, I think it is even more. It is 8 servings of the evaporated milk which is 200 calories. The values probably change by brand (but I used the same as Tiff) because I only get 27 g of Protein. If I calculate it on myfitnesspal.com is:

1 envelope of SF Carnation Instant Breakfast (Chocolate): 60 calories

1 Cup FF Evaporated Milk (that's 8 servings): 25*8= 200 calories

1/4 cup FF powdered milk: 60 calories

Total:

Calories: 320

Carbs: 45

Fat: 1

Sugar: 40 <-- bad carbs

Protein: 27

I already said this in a different thread, this is a high calorie, high carb item - and considering this, the protein count is actually quite low.

I am sure it tastes awesome, but it's barely better than 2 cups of fat free chocolate milk.

As someone in the other topic stated, each surgeon has their own nutritional guidelines, but I just don't think that this is something that should come as highly recommended because of it's nutritional profile...just sayin'

The carb and calorie alone would keep me from this unless the protein and Fiber count was in the 60-80 gram range.

This sounds like a very delicious thing to have as a very very rare treat once weight loss has been well under way. Sounds almost equivalent to eating a pint of low fat ice cream.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
