Quick And Easy 20 Gram Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

Take a cup of skim or 1% milk and put it in a shaker cup, add a half a cup of fat free unflavored greek yogurt - add 2 squeezes of Mio - I used berry Pomegranate flavor. It was delicious.

Almost 20 grams of Protein - 19.5 grams of Protein

That's a great idea, thanks! I'm pre-op but trying to get used to regularly ingesting 75g of clean Protein. 3 of those daily would almost get me there -- & w/o soaking up most of my daily calories. :}

If you use Mootopia it is a fortified lactose free 1/2 sugars milk...cuts calories but ups the protien - a cup is 12g protien.

consider freezing cantelope and strawberries, grapes, apples, peaches, berry mixes...and get a GOOD blender - you need alot of crushing power but needs strong vertical motion & also MUST be easy to clean and I recommend glass, too -

now, get unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and a low-sugar juice - tropicana now has 50/50 which is half the sugars...experiment until you get a frothy brew you like! - you are almost guaranteed to find one :)

I got a Ninja for my bday bc I had a hunch it would come in handy for this, & not the most expensive one either, AND IT IS WONDERFUL!!! We do fruit smoothies all the time now instead of other Desserts.

Sounds good. Where do you get Mio? What is that?

Mio is flavor you squirt into Water to make a flavored water drink. I have Berry Pomegranate, fruit Punch and strawberry Watermelon .

http://www.kraftbrands.com/mio/ - it's at the grocery store with the Crystal Lite.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
