What happens if you don't get all you protein in for the day? I am doing great on my vitamins and am taking my calcium chews regularly. Its just ever since surgery I can only drink things that are like really cold and it takes me forever to drink one of my shakes so they get hot and ive tried every which way to fix them it just when im at work they get hot and i dont finish them. Ive thought about eating some of the bars but it takes me so long to eat anything that I dont think they would be beneficial. I do try to eat as much cheese and chicken and things like that as i can I just know that I am not getting near as much as I can. Thanks!

I think you just try to do better the next day. I also struggle with getting the protein drinks down. Have you tried low Carb slim fast? They meet all the nutritional requirements and taste better than the protein drinks to me. Or maybe powdered protein? They also make protein shots and a kind of jello shot with 15gms of protein in them. They are call protein twist shots. Hope one of these can help you.

I am sorry you are having these issues, but you might be getting more protein than you think. Have you tried measuring out your portions and counting the protein? Also, have you thought about cottage cheese and maybe tuna salad?

I just ordered a sample pack of hot chocolate Proteins at mybariatricpantry.com Haven't gotten them yet so I can't say how they are, but if you have trouble with cold drinks, that's an option. There's also Unjury's chicken Soup Protein.

Greek yogurt has a ton of protein, so you could try adding that in as a supplement.

good luck to you!
