My surgeon said I need to have no less than 80 grams of Protein per day.

Problem is I'm rarely home because of work and school so I just can't seem to get the 80 grams in. There's just not enough time in the day!!!

I drink a 30g Protein shake every morning. I was taking nuts to school with me but my surgeon said they're too fatty and to stop :/ I'd really prefer to not have to bring a cooler with me everywhere I go.

Can't have more than 6g of carbs or 6g of sugar in one sitting - Protein bars are packed full of carbs and sugar

What about a tablespoon of Peanut Butter? Cottage cheese with fruit.

Adkins has some that fall in that category. They have meal ones,snack ones and indulgent ones. I like the one that's like a PayDay. It has 16 carbs but only 3 net carbs.

I was using those baby bel lights to supplement my protein... my surgeon wants me to do another shake... I too do one in the morning... and boy do I hate it. He said the try the unjury chicken noodle soup..so that's gonna be my next purchase. I have seen pretty good reviews.

What is the name of the Atkins bar that taste like a payday?

Try Pure Protein Revolution bars, to me they taste just like a snickers bar. 20 protein and only 3 sugars!

How far post op is everyone who is eating the protein bars?

I'm a little over six weeks. I just make sure it's small bites and I chew, chew, chew!
