Tired Of Sweet Drinks



Recommended Posts

I'm almost done with the full luquid stage but i went from having no problems with getting all my Protein in with shakes to now I can barely get one down. I'm not a big sweets person and all the sweet drinking is really getting to me. Anyone have good ideas for puree stage on getting protein in where I don't have to drink as many sweet shakes?

I've been thinking myself how to get creative with Protein when the time comes. Because I'm a savory person more so than sweets, and I know I'll get sick of the sweet drinks as well.

An idea I thought of for a puree is made with split peas. If you like pea Soup maybe try this. I'm going to :)

Make some split pea Soup, cooked real long until it's real mushy and not too thick. Add some extra chicken base for extra flavor if desired. Take it and put in a Ninja single serve or a Magic Bullet. Add an addition scoop of unflavored pea Protein (a very good source of protein!). NOW makes a good pea protein. Whizz it up until it's pureed, add more or less pea protein to desired consistency. Would make a nice hearty savory (and hopefully satisfying) protein rich thick soup.

I think it would be pretty good!

Unjury chicken broth. It can be found online. You also could purchase their unflavored and make your own flavor smoothies.< /p>

I hate sweet, milky drinks. I'm still pre-op and am allowed creamy/puréed Soups. I've been eating things like Pacific Organic Cashew Carrot Ginger Soup or Butternut Squash soup with some Syntrax nectar unflavored Protein powder, or Imagine Organics Creamy Broccoli soup mixed with unjury cheese flavored Protein. These are on average $2-3 per box of soup, and each have a little more than three 8oz. servings. It works best if you reserve a little of the cool soup to mix the protein, then when completely mixed, add your protein-filled portion to the heated bit. If you add Protein Powder to hot soup, it gets lumpy.

For the occasional change up, I also mix the unflavored into cottage cheese or into Water with a Crystal Lite packet. It stays thin and doesn't have that awful whey smell.

I also like the Unjury chicken soup protein, and while I find it tastes fine mixed alone in warm Water, I think it would be delicious prepared with warm broth.

      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! 😞
