The Premeire Protein bars from costco have 30 grams of Protein. I can only half of one. They are higher in carbs than other Protein Bars, but I will eat half before going to the gym because I think I need carbs when I am going to work out for a couple of hours.

a little off topic... sorry

when we drink Protein drinks we are suppose to have protein isolate not protein concentrate. Is this the same for bars... are there bars with protein types that are better (more easily utilized) than others?

Sorry, I don't have the answer for that. The Protein bars I eat are the Premeire from costco and the OH Yeah bars which I get from Vitacost.com

I use a whole Atkins vanilla shake as cream in my coffee. I use one part coffee to one part Protein and I get to feel like I'm haveing a big fat mug of java when really its about 6oz.

I remember back when I did south beach there was a recepie for crustless quiche muffins. You could bake a bunch and freeze them. I've been looking for it but cant find it. While I was googling the recepie I came across people who where making quiche muffins by taking foil baking cups and spraying them with pam. I haven't tried it yet but I assume you could do this with any quiche recepie... you could even make veggie quiche and get some veggies in first thing.

Stcyt yu should take a look at theworld of egg face she has alot of crustless quishes onher blog.

do you know if you can order these online? We don't have a costco around here.

They don't have them on the costco site, but you can order them from other places online including Amazon.com. Just google "Premier Protein shakes" and you should find them!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
