So in IMG_6833.JPGeffort to reach my daily Protein goal (80 grams) without having to drink a shake everyday I have been looking for alternative protein sources.

Today I tried a bag of Quest chips in cheddar/sour cream. 21 grams of Protein~130 calories~4 grams of carbs.

I thought they were pretty good. The flavor wasn’t bad and they kinda taste like baked chips that are off brand. 🤪 I would eat them again and they helped with my desire to crunch. I was able to eat the whole bag in 1 sitting so I’m pretty sure they are sliders so I’ll have to watch it. I thought it would make a great on the go snack and the bump in protein (listed as milk isolate and whey) it what I need to meet my goals.

Anyone tried these? Is there any reason they would not make a good replacement for a Protein Drink besides maybe missing some Vitamins and minerals? The chips actually have less calories than my Protein Shakes.

I've got a bag I bought a couple weeks ago and haven't tried yet. Will try to remember to try them tonight!

I love them, but for me they are def. a slippery slope. I'm a chip hound. I love the BBQ the best, but the sour cream and onion, and cheddar sour cream are good too. I haven't had them post surgery. Too askeered. I used to eat a 1/2 bag with a low carb wrap pre-op. Never kept me from losing. But I would absolutley go for them preferentially over real food for Snacks.

      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! 😞
