DAY 5 POST OP: MADE MY OWN PROTEIN SHAKE



Recommended Posts

After trying all these different Protein Shakes, I really couldn't find anything that I really liked. So, I made my own. Now as far as how much Protein it has I have no idea, but, it's really good and I can get it down quiet easily.

I used 8 oz almond milk, 2 scoops chocolate Protein Powder and 1 T Peanut Butter. I found it to be a little thick for 5 days out, so, I thinned it with Water. But, its so good.

Good for you! I make my own as well & I think they're way better than the premade ones. You should be able to add up the Protein amounts from the labels & get your total easily. Also, you might want to check out PB2...it's powdered Peanut Butter & it's delicious in shakes. It has 85% less fat than regular peanut butter, but all the protein.

I use a Cocktail shaker with ice and shake my Protein Shakes in it, it is fast easy and makes it very cold! I drink it right from the stainless steel shaker. Easy fast and stays cold a long time! Also travels nice in the car :)

When I was still relying on my Protein Shakes, I made my own as well. One of my faves was almond milk, skim milk, one or two scoops of unflavored Unjury Protein powder, a little bit of Torani chocolate Syrup (no fat/no sugar), and lots of ice. It tasted like an almond joy. I would also do almond milk, skim milk, a drop of Peanut Butter, and about 1/4 of a small banana. It was the easiest way for me to get in my protein. They were so good my daughter even liked them! I'm glad you found something you like as well!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
