Protein

[DaniG 54]

I need some good recipes for tillapia!! I had breaded before surgery can't have that now.

ok. Get a piece foil. Spray it with Pam. Put the fish on foil. Oven preheated to 400. Cover the fish in salsa (any kind you like). Fold the foil over the fish creating a tent and seal it well so it can steam. bake for 17 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Its yummy!! Made it yesterday.

You can do exactly the same thing with salmon. I like to add sliced lemon and cilantro before sealing the pouch. Really delicious!

Ok so I'm supposed to get at least 60 grams of Protein a day. Like most, I'm sick of them *just bored with them, not physically. But all the pre ops stuff all I remember was them pushing shakes!

The food options I have are pretty high in Protein. Question, if what I eat during the day gets me close to or at 60 does that mean I don't a shake? Or is it eat what's on my list and get 60gms from shake?

There is no "better option" than getting all of your protein from food. The key word being ALL of your protein. My surgeon requires 100g a day. I still drink a Protein Shake every day for Breakfast but I soon found lots of high protein food options. I've averaged 95g of protein a day for the last eight months. I have compiled a list of almost 100 grocery store and fast food options that are high in protein and I'm constantly adding new finds to it. Forum rules don't allow me to post the Excel file but I'd be glad to email it to you if you post your emal address or PM it to me. I've sent it to dozens of folks on the forum and many seem to find it useful.
