other protein besides drinking ?



Recommended Posts

What stage are you on? That will count for a lot in what Proteins you can have.

Generally speaking, meat, fish, eggs, cheese, Greek yogurt all have good amounts of Protein. How much Protein varies by what type.

Get the unflavored Protein Powder. You can sprinkle it on your veggies or in your Soups. Unjury makes a good unflavored one. You can mix it in your flavored yogurt to add a punch of Protein.

There are 6 tablespoons of Protein Powder in each pack, one pack is 21 grams of protein, or 3.5 grams of protein per tablespoon. I use either 1 or 2 tablespoons at a time, depending on my protein count for the day. I sometimes use the chicken Soup flavor one sprinkled on cauliflower or Beans just for a little different flavor.

I eat every meal as Protein first - tuna, salmon, all sorts of fish and seafood, turkey, beef, chicken, egg beaters.... even greek yogurt and cheese add some. I drink premier Proteins and find them palatable.

Try adding zinc too for the hair issue.

I eat those ostrich Protein meat Protein sticks. They come in the health food section of HEB by all the Protein drinks and bulk foods. I also do Protein Shots.

The drinks make me sick too. I try to get through them most days.

Pasteurized eggs mixed with OJ, vanilla and a drop of honey or Monk Fruit sweetener is good.

I use egg/ or unflavored Protein powder in Soups.

Making a ball out of PB2, a scoop of vanilla or chocolate Protein Powder and a bit yogurt in good. You want it to be stiff like a refrigerator cookie. If they are loose I add almond flour.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
