Recommended Posts

I made an awesome strawberry lemonade today. Take a scoop of strawberry Protein, add it to 10oz Water and 1/2 packet crystal light lemonade. (or pre make lemonade, use 10 oz and 1 scoop powder) I even put mine in the freezer, let it get ice chunkees in it... Mmmm, I want more now....

Take the cup u drink out of then fill it up with ice then fill that cup 3/4 with skim milk and add a half packet of sugar free Jello pudding (I like cheesecake, or butterscotch) with one scoop vanilla Protein Powder and blend. If its too thick add more skim milk. If you want it sweeter Then add some Torani sf vanilla Syrup. It's really tasty.

Ok, so I've never tried this with Protein powder, but if you try it, let me know how it tastes lol:

1 palmful of grapes fresh or pre frozen for a thicker smoothie(126g)

1/2 cup of coconut Water (remove this of you want to make an acai bowl)

1/2 brick of acai roots pure unsweetened acai purée (buy at whole foods or health food type stores)

1 scoop or strawberry Protein Powder

Good luck!

the ONLY way I can drink my shake is with ice in a blender so it makes a milkshake. if I try to mix it with a blenderball I gag. luckily I am on 1 shake per day now (morning) and my magc bullet is packed when I am on business trips. good luck

If you have a chocolate shake, try it with some PB2 mixed in to make it chocolate Peanut Butter. Also, have you tried the nectar Double Stuffed Cookie Protein? I highly recommend getting a few samples - in the blender with some ice it is just like a milkshake.

Add one banana, some strawberries or kiwi. Frozen berries/peaches are also good to change up the flavor.

All of these sound sooo delicious. I'm going shopping with the hubby later and I'm really going to have to stock up on some of the ingredients mentioned here! Thanks so much guys!!

I like combining plain greek yogurt, fruit (banana, mango, strawberry, blueberry, etc.), a splash of vanilla extract, scoop of Protein and skim milk to thin it out. I've noticed if I combine the first three ingredients in blender then mix protein and milk by hand I don't get the mountain of froth. Also, they are kind high in sugar, but I love these ensure clear blueberry pom drinks...I don't always want my protein in milkshake form.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
