PB2 + Protein Shake = DELISH!



Recommended Posts

I have been struggling (as many of us do early on) getting in adequate Protein for the day...

Getting slightly discouraged I've been talking with my sister who had GB over 5 yrs ago. Explained my frustrations and she reminded me of a a Protein shake that helped her reach goals.

I tried it today and I couldn't get enough, far from just a month ago when smelling the Protein powder make me wanna be sick!!

8oz of almond milk, (or any)

1 scoop Protein Powder

2 Tbs of PB2

Cup of ice

BLEND

* Occasionally a squirter of SF Hershey's chocolate Syrup *

It's so good.

@@KalelsWifey Have you tried Premier Protein shakes? They're pre-made and taste delicious. I don't care for any of the powders, even when I use my NutriBullet to mix them. You get 30 grams of Protein in just 11 ounces! I've used them from day 1 to achieve my 63-66 grams of daily protein. I'm eating 3 meals and 2 Snacks which average 12-15 grams of protein each. So far so good. I have my first post-op visits this coming Tuesday. Excited to see my nutritionist as we've become friends. Your shake sounds good. I love PB2 ^_^

I use Sure Protein (Walmart) sells it, it's so masked by the PB2 that I don't realize I'm drinking a shake.< /p>

@@beachgal2935 I have not tried that. I have heard they can be expensive. Is that true? I'm trying to rely on food for protein but I don't think that'll be possible until I've reached 3-4 months and my pouch has properly healed and not so swollen. I will look into these. Thank you.

I like Premier the best so far and it's the cheapest pre-mixed I've found at Walmart and Sams Club. Krogers also has it. I like the chocolate. I haven't been thrilled with any of the Protein drinks so far but haven't been disgusted by any yet either. I ordered some stuff called Whey-licious from Dr. Hale Nutrition for after surgery because I can get a lot of Protein in a small volume.

Ahh thanks for that, it sounds amazing.

PB2 is a powdered Peanut Butter that blends really well when making a Protein shake or a smoothie.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
