How much Protein and how many calories and carbs?

I dislike anything in a box or package. I shop on the exterior of the grocery store. the longer the shelf life the shorter the human life. I typically eat things that spoil.

If it has about 5 or less ingredients it goes into my body. If there are so many ingredients and I cannot pronounce most of them it does not touch my lips.

That's just me.

I am sure you can make your own frozen type sammiches with a dough that has less carbs and better fillings and seal it with a sammich cut and seal device.

I would defiantly re-evaluate your frozen food choice.

But if you like them then go for it.

I know some has 8g to 9g of protein but I don't know about carbs.

Frozen Entrees also tend to have a lot of sodium. Just some things to look for. I find it much easier to just buy some lunchmeat and cheese and make a few roll ups.

Lean Pockets are not actually good for you (unfortunately, because I really like the pretzel bread crust ones), but like anything else if it's something you enjoy and you eat in moderation, then why not continue to enjoy it? At two years out, you know how many calories works for you and the types of nutrients you need...if Lean Pockets fit into you diet every once in awhile, then I say enjoy! :)

Actually, come to think of it and you'd asked, I think the Pockets are lean on fillings and chewy, I won't eat two but am tempted each time as well as those springs rolls which are beefier in the middle for me, <_<

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
