Premade Protein Shakes or Protein waters are great in the early days. For foods, I ate a lot of refried Beans, hummus, thick Soups, etc. and would just add unflavored Protein Powder (Isopure) to everything. Once you progress to solid foods, it gets easier to get more protein in without supplementing.

I have been taking the Unjury chicken broth Protein Powder. You mix it up in warm (not hot) Water and drink it. It has 21 grams of Protein in 8 ounces. 90 calories so it is really not bad to get the protein in. I got so sick of sweet Protein Shakes that I needed a change. If you need the full 30 grams of protein like a premeir Protein Shake, use a scoop and a half in 12 ounces...still much easier to get down than a protein shake and the calories are the same.

I need to get my hands on the non flavored protein because taking it down has been my biggest challenge the taste is to much for me .

      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! 😞
