Chia Seeds And Powdered Peanut Butter!



Recommended Posts

You can make Chia seed pudding. I have only made vanilla, but you can make chocolate too! If you google it, you can find recipes. Mine is 1 cup almond milk (you can use any milk though), 2 TBSP chia seeds, vanilla extract and sweetener to taste (torani syrups, splenda, whatever you fancy), let set in the fridge (I usually leave mine overnight). The Chia seeds absorb the liquid and it becomes kind of like tapioca (the seeds still have a little texture though). Very filling snack!

PB2 is delicious! You can get plain or chocolate. You can add it to shakes (chocolate PB shake, mmm). You can also add to almost anything you want a Peanut Butter taste (greek yogurt, Protein pancakes, Protein ice cream, pudding).

I have a Breville Juicer and I put a tablespoon of Chia seeds in my juice, put juice in a mason jar & let the Chia seeds sit in juice until I get to work. Chia seeds are gelotanous, meaning they absorb liquid and supposed to be wonderful for your digestive system as well as a good source of Omega 3, 6 and I think they have a good amount of Protein (not sure though). I like them way better than Flax seeds. Supposedly they are a better source of your Omegas than Flax and they don't go rancid and they don't have a taste. They absorb the flavor of whatever food you put them in!

I use the powdered Peanut Butter in a soy shake with a few pieces of frozen banana. I like it and it blends way better than real peanut butter.

You can add Chia seeds to green protien smoothies and it gives it a really fresh good taste.

      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!
