Protein intake



Recommended Posts

Please tell me what is everybody eating as far as Protein, not including Protein shakes? I'm 6-7 weeks post op and I'm having problems getting it in. Everything is really too sweet for and it stinks. I'm nauseous.

My go to meal lately has been half an avocado with a soft poached egg on top and a pinch of Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.

Take a look at Elli Quark instead yogurt or Greek yogurt. It has fewer calories (80) and higher Protein (14g). It is available online and Hy-Vee stores in my area. It is available in 12 flavors.

I know you are looking for food ideas, put if the real issue is Protein shakes are your best bet. The Premier Protein shakes have 30g per 11oz bottle. I drink two a day and that gets me to 60. Anything else I get from from is just a bonus at that point.

      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! 😞
