Protein shake concoctions



Recommended Posts

Hi all -

I'm 8 days banded and 14 lbs down! (20 including my 2-week 1000 cal diet) I just left my doctors for my postop and really am so happy with this decision. I'm feeling great!

Anyway, I saw the other day someone posted about a Protein Shake they make with banana, smooth Peanut Butter, some other ingredients and a scoop of unflavored Protein.< /p>

That sounded amazing and I'm wondering if you all can share some other good shake recipes, I'm not a huge fan of them but I know how important they are!

Thanks!

My favorite, and only shake is vanilla Protein, skim milk, and sugar free Chia tea concentrate. Love it and low calorie to boot. Adding fruit/sugar and peanut butter/fat ? Need to look at additional calories. Good Luck.

Where do you get S/F Chai Tea concentrate? That shake sounds delicious

I do vanilla Protein Powder with 1 c trop 50 orange juice and sometimes 4 frozen strawberries. It's only 150-170 calories. Or I do vanilla Protein powder, 1 c skim milk and 1 Tbsp s/f pistachio powder, yummy! Or chocolate powder, 1 c skim milk and a couple ice cubes to make it extra cold.

      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.
