Protein



Recommended Posts

I thought I would post this for all those who are just starting their journey. You can buy whey powder at Wal-Mart very cheaply. You must keep your Protein intake at the top of the food list to be successful in weight loss.

Who is whey Protein for?

Whey protein is ideal for:

  • Growing children and teenagers. ADD and ADHD are common childhood "diseases", which many consider to be diseases of sugar addiction. Whey protein helps stabilize children's blood sugar, increases production of feel-good brain chemicals which helps increase mental clarity and focus, and helps prevent and reduce the symptoms of ADD and ADHD.
  • Pregnant or lactating women. Protein is essential for the proper fetal and infant development, particularly brain development, and helps prevent gestational diabetes.
  • Adults. As we get older, our bodies are less efficient at absorbing protein. Whey protein is the most easily absorbed protein available. It will reverse the aging process and rebuild your immune system. You will rarely if ever be sick and you will begin to look and feel years younger.
  • Busy people. The busier you are, the more energy you need. Whey protein helps increase mental and physical energy instantly.
  • Athletes and body builders. It is the most easily and quickly absorbed protein available, for maximum muscle synthesis.

I'm suspecting the chicken flavored Protein can go in Soups, etc.. Why not just drink a chocolate Protein shake (or two) with a banana during the day instead? It's an easy way to get Protein and if you sip the Water fairly heavily during the day, the meal will seem adequate?

Canned fish products like oysters, sardines, tuna, salmon, and herring offer about 20 grams of protein also. You can buy powdered milk and add it to stuff to boost its protein numbers also.

Can you just use it like a broth? Or put it in Soups?

I thought about that. If I mix it up cold and then heat, do you know if it will clump? Other than that, I'm at a loss, unless I could sprinkle if on vegtables, try to dissolve it and then heat.

whey shouldn't typically clump if you dissolve THEN heat as you suggest. It should be okay that way.

I really like the chocolate shake, but I bought the chicken flavor at the same time and don't know what to do with it. I guess I thought I was going to be on liquids alot longer. It may end up in the garbage if I don't find some good way to use it.

      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
