how in the world do you get 100 g of Protein in, in a day's time? I'm not getting enough and am losing hair and nails so my dr upped my Protein by eating Protein Bar not shake but I certainly do not know how you eat that much, please share...I'm only 1 yr out.

my dietitian said there is approximately 7 g of protein for every once you eat. I have the 2 scoops of Protein powder to make sure I get in my protein. The brand I use is about 52 g for the 2 scoops. I was having a different protein bar and then she said to switch to the Cliff ones.

the Cliff crunchy Peanut Butter ones only and don't quote me on this has only 11 grs of Protein and those are the only ones I can stomach, which ones are higher and not nasty?

I just looked at the boxes. They are Cliff Builder's 20g Protein bar. I buy chocolate, chocolate peanut better and chocolate mint. They all taste good. I buy them at Target for $7.84 for I think 6 in a box. I just ripped the top off to see what. I am very fussy with what i eat and I found these 3 flavors good. I have seen some flavors at Walmart, also for about the same price.

I will have to look at Walmart for the chocolate Peanut Butter, I think I could handle those, sounds good!!! thanks a bunch. I don't have a Target close by well its 30 mins away but I think my Walmart will carry them.

Ok I just re-read the thread and compliled a list of the rules everyone came up with ... I think im gonna post this on the wall of my cube at work.

  1. eat 1000 cals a day or under (1 cup of food per meal)
  2. get at least 60-80g or protein
  3. only have 2 carb servings per day (only with 2 meals) – GOOD CARBS only (not bread, Pasta, etc)
  4. drink 64 oz of Water a day
  5. eat Protein FIRST
  6. no alcohol
  7. MEASURE your food – don’t eyeball it

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
