How Do I Know How Much Protein To Eat?
Ashley Love replied to Dr. Duc Vuong's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks for all the info. I was curious about the soy protein as well since I basically live off of the Proti 15 food from Prescriptions For Wellness. Everything has about 15 grams of protein in them. They help me reach my daily goal. Now I am more comfortable living off it knowing that Soy Protein is good for you too. Thanks again for your knowledge. -

The Protein food I eat is called Proti. I get it from prescriptionsforwellnes.com I love them cause most everything has 15 grams of protein in them (which fills me up). They range from 50 to 100 calories per drink, soup, shake or entree. And when I am having a sweet tooth, I have one of the Protein Bars. Which also have 15 grams of protein and between 130 and 170 calories each. Since we need to have so much protein every day, I have just found it easier to stick with Proti food to reach that daily goal. If you choose to start eating this food. Let me know, I can give you all kinds of tips and tricks. -

List of Protein rich foods/values
Ashley Love replied to leatha_g's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Dune has a great idea. I tried it once or twice, it wasn't too bad. But, I'm just lazy. I am now on the Proti foods from Bariatrix Nutrition. I love them cause they are easy and high in protein to keep me full longer. I get mine at prescriptionsforwellness.com I started by using the sample diet they have listed on the site. But now I just listen to my stomach and watch how much I take in. It works well for me. I just need to watch my sugars. I still get the sugar cravings every now and then.
