As a sleeve patient 3 wks post op and drinking protein shake after protein shake, can we have peanut butter? I was considering adding some to my shake. Low fat, low sugar. Is there one out there that works for us?

It's up to your doctor, mine did allow it(I'm almost 3 weeks out on mushies now) but mine dietician told us no on the reduced fat bc too much sugar, she recommended all natural peanut butter with no more than 3 ingredients on the label lol! I found my store brand has one and it has one ingredient peanuts . Another product that is awesome for shakes is PB2 it's defatted peanut butter that is in powder form perfect to add to shakes!

Woops hit send too quick! Most stores around me carry it but at one point it was hard to find and I ordered it on Amazon! I'd always check with your doctor first tho!

I just tried to order PB2 on their website, but it didn't work! (They don't sell it in stores here in New England.)

I'll try Amazon!

I was going to suggest PB2, also. It tastes good in shakes! Also, Naturally More is a super yummy Peanut Butter. I get it at Walmart.

Thanks!!

Whole foods has PB2. I think Walmart has started carrying it, too.

FYI I have moved this thread from Recipe Sharing to the Food and Nutrition forum so it will be easier to find.

I live in Connecticut & they sell it in Stop & Shop in the peanut butter section

I am surprised it is in Connecticut--their own website shows it is not sold in stores here. I had no luck with their website, which was good, because Amazon was much cheaper! Can't wait to give it a try!

its in wegmans in natures marketplace. if you are near a wegmans.
