I add 3 scoops of Beneprotein Protein powder to my chocolate HMR Protein Shakes (made with 8 oz. of skim milk) for 23 grams of Protein per 1/2 C. serving. I have two shakes per day.

I also eat low-fat small curd cottage cheese for 10 grams of protein. I eat cottage cheese twice a day.

Consuming the shakes and cottage cheese gives me 66 grams of protein. Not bad.

I bought my Designer Whey Unflavored Protein powder at Vitamin Shoppe. They have a small can or a large tub.

I haven't added it to plain Water to see if there's actually no taste. There's 2g of sugar so I'm sure there's some taste but it's not enough to notice if you put it in food.< /p>

Thanks! Going to a support group today since I was sleeved in Houston and Live in Austin trying to find a support group here. Heading to Vitamin Shoppe. My surgeon is a vegan so he really tries to get us off the protien drinks. Like I am eating garbonso Beans and kidney beans with some cucumber. But have not figure out how eating like that I can get all the protien in . Thanks for all of your inputs. If you are comin g up with any new food concoctions please post!

I eat shrimp, chicken, PB2, cottage cheese, edamame (tons of protein), kashi go lean, string cheese, soy milk (lattes), turkey, hummus, and greek yogurt. I haven't had a Protein Shake since 2 weeks out and I am never looking back. So done with that stuff.

I eat eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, chicken, beef, veggie burgers, string cheese, milk, turkey, ham, greek yogurt, hummus. Most Protein Shakes make me really sick, almost like I'm dumping, so I try to avoid those. I've tried the soy and pea shakes and they work well, but they taste terrible.

I am 8 weeks out and can eat almost anything but no pastas, sugar, breads or rice. I eat a lot of salmon, tuna, chicken, pumpkin baked with egg beaters, splenda and spices, green Beans, scrambled eggs with Laughing Cow cheese added, turkey bacon, taco salad made with very fine lean ground round, shredded lettuce, diced Tomato, fat-free cheese and I use 3-4 crumbled Bariatric Choice Protein crisps for the crunchiness. Chili is also one of my "go-to" foods. I am eating 4-5 oz per meal.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
