Quick Protein



Recommended Posts

Hey guys... I hope everyone is fabulous and happy in their journey. Anyway let me start by saying that right after surgery I cant tolerate Protein Shakes. With that being said, I found a great product at my grocery store that I use to get a quick low calorie low card high Protein snack in. The product Im referring to is HOOD milk. I can usually find it at stop and shop or Pathmark. Here is a lil quick recipe that I use to help me get up to 16grams of protein in one shot. I pour 2 cups of HOOD milk in a glass, 4 packets of splenda and maybe a shot of sugar free Syrup if I want to jazz up the taste, and one cup of Chai tea brewed from just the tea bag and hot Water. Let the water cool and pour it into the milk stir and drink. This recipe is 90 cals... 6 carbs..0 fat...16 Proteins. I hope you guys try it and let me know what you think... By the way when you purchase this make sure it is the green container which is fat free. This can also be served hot... So this will help with the waist line and your pockets since you wont be on line at starbucks anymore lol... As always love you guys...

This recipe sounds wonderful. Thank for posting! and I love Chai tea.....what a blessing this is today. I had my sleeve on Tuesday Dec 28 and am still fumbling around with what I can and cannot eat. Have had Tomato Soup and carnation instant breakfasts....a bit of crystal light and water...:( not real exciting, but trying to focus on all that I WILL have in my life as i lose weight.

      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.
