egg salad, tuna salad, chicken salad. If chicken bothers you , put it in a blender before you make the chicken salad. White fish is good. Have you checked out the ricotta bake in the recipes in the food forum?

At 3 months, these should work for you.

I have a hard time with protein shakes too. Get some free samples of chike shake mix. The strawberry blast one tastes like frankenberries! I like it a lot, and this is from someone who gags down premier protein!

This search on Google can help: tofu recipes ("low fat" OR "low calorie" OR healthful)

Also, you can puree tofu in the blender along with some splenda or equal + Water or milk + fruit or Protein powder - even green leafy vegetables, such as spinach!. Puree it on the highest speed (I have a VitaMix). Add a few ice cubes and puree them as well. You have a smoothee. You essentially turntofu into a liquid. This pureeing technique works with firm, medium, soft and silken textures of tofu. I do find that different brands of tofu have different flavors. My own personal favorite brand is Mori Nu. You can order cases of Mori Nu online. But other people might find other brands to be better. Tofu always has helped me lose weight in the past. I hope that this information is helpful.

Do you by chance have a financial interest in a tofu company?

Protien pudding... Do you like pudding? Make a box of suger free fat free pudding with skim milk and add 2 scoops of protien powder when mixing it up. TONS of protien in a small amount of pudding. It's an easy way to get the protien in.

How do I make this

You can buy a really good pudding at the Vitamin shoppe. It's Pro Pudding by body tech. It's 25 grams of protein and 4 carbs. It's really good.

I do not have any financial interest in a tofu company.

How do I make this

Instructions are on the pudding box. This is delicious with Jello Cheesecake flavored instant sugar free pudding mix and vanilla Protein powder!

I just ordered it! Do you eat the whole thing as a meal replacenenr? It looks big!

Thank you! I was in a crunch last night and ate that for dinner! It was delicious! A great break from the shakes!

Yeah, I really like it too. It's low carb, so I don't mind eating it in the evening if I want a snack.

I don't use it as a meal anymore, cause I can eat anything now.

I think the cheapest place to get it is Amazon cause their shipping is cheaper. If you have a Vitamin shoppe, they carry it. I don' t have one here though.

How far out are you? I'm 9 weeks so still struggling, but that's a great option instead of the shake!
