Add a half scoop of unflavored Protein powder to your nectar powder you'll get an extra 10 to 12 g right there. I do this daily. With the approval of both my bariatric surgeon and my dietitian

I have powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored but the Protein taste is so chalky (I can barely tolerate the nectar). I need to put on my big girl panties and figure it out. Problem is just choking it down isn't an option, as I'll vomit.

@@theantichick sorry I wasn't clear in my latest post in this thread! No Snacks *other than Protein shakes.* I had 1-2 Protein Shakes daily throughout my weight loss period. I didn't mind them at all, as long as I had the right brand & flavor of powder. I did a lot of experimenting and some were much more successful than others!

Ok, that makes a LOT more sense. To me, the Protein shake is a mini-meal. So if I ate 3 "food" meals and 2 shakes, I would count that as 5 small meals. That's why I posted about what everyone is calling "snacking" because I didn't think we were all using the same terms. LOL.

I am frankly over the shakes. I'm down to one flavor with one brand I can stand, even though I keep trying all of the others as well as concoctions to try and flavor them differently. :(

I make 3oz pudding shots. Any flavor sugar free pudding, 2 cups skim milk, 5 scoops unflavored Isopure. pour into 6 tiny Rubbermaid and chill. 20oz Protein. Easier. For me than a Protein shake.

I need to do something like this. But nutrasweet gives me Migraines. I've debated doing it with full sugar pudding and trying to make pudding from scratch with splenda or Monk Fruit. :(

pudding masks it. I love the banana cream pie.

Cottage cheese or greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is often made from milk that has been enriched by boiling off some of its Water content, or by adding extra butterfat and powered milk, It contains a higher Protein density than regular yogurt, which is largely casein Protein. Cottage cheese does, too. You can find more about health benefits of cottage cheese at https://wikihomenutrition.com/cottage-cheese-health-benefits/

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
