What Foods Are High In Protein ?



Recommended Posts

I've noticed a lot of people asking this question. "What foods are high in protein"?

So I thought it was a great idea to post it on here.

Maybe a lot of us can post foods/shakes that we BANDERS can eat and drink.

I looked over my MFP food diaries and I seem to get the best Protein to calories value from seafood, any kind, other than fried.

Walmart carries a whey Protein Powder in many flavors chocolate, strawberry, Cookies and cream, etc... It has 52 grams of Protein in one scoop. Put in the blender with skim or lowfat milk and a few icecubes and it is like having a healthy milkshake.

I think Protein Shakes are the best bang for the buck. Of course not all are created equal but that's a start. For food, I find that egg whites, Beans, and fish are great Protein values with low caloric intake. Again nothing fried of course. Protein Bars you have to be VERY careful with. Some are over 400 calories (and I find most taste like paste).

I think Ben and Jerry has a new flavor of ice cream it only comes in half gallon sizes. It's called " Protien Shmotein with Protein chips " it's a joke people relax yourselves and looses up a bit. Know how to have fun dont get too uptight. The only thIng that should be tight is our bands.

P.S. seriously though if u can post a question about foods high in Protein u might as well just google it ! Fish meat egg whites peanuts

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
