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 .

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
