Alternatives to high protein soy-based foods?



Recommended Posts

I love getting 20g of Protein in a veggie burger but am resistant to eat a lot of soy since it's been linked to breast cancer.

Any other big Protein for small quantity foods out there that don't have soy?

costco carries a Carmelized onion chicken burger - 22 gm of Protein, and very good (brand is Amylu). They also have chicken sausage with apple and gouda, I think 16 gm of protein.

Greek Yogurt has a great Protein bang for calories. Fage 0 has 23 grams of Protein and 130 calories in a cup.

Lowfat cheese sticks are good too. 3 sticks have 24 grams of protein for 180 calories.

For meat, chicken and turkey breast have the highest levels of protein per ounce.

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

      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! 😞
