Peanut Butter Powder!

[Gastricsleeve4me 186]

I'm a fan of a bit of peanut or almond butter in my Protein shakes...but not a fan of the fat. Imagine my excitement when I found organic powdered Peanut Butter at the market. Made by Betty Lou's Inc. One TBSP added to my vanilla shake was yummy! I only use one, but serving size is 2 TBSP. NUT facts:

45 cals

1.5 fat

5g carbs (2g sugars)

4g Protein

Apparently you're actually meant to add a TBSP of Water to make PB nice because I can throw in a baggie with Protein powder on the go

Oh! I've gotta look for that! I have surgery on Monday and need to hit the store one more time for some last minute things. WHERE in the store did you find it? Was it in the natural foods section or ? Thank you!!!

Yeah, was with the natural foods. I found it at wegman's...a grocery store here in NJ

I do home health care and one of my patients is a quadriplegic. His grandmom found this for him since all of his food had to be pureed. I never even thought that this would be good for us bariatric people!!! Good job!

Oh I am so excited! Thank you!!!!

This is the one I found at my local market: http://www.bettylousinc.com/products_detail.php?id=287&ref=9. Sounds like PB2 is a popular brand too, but don't know the nutritional comparison.

PB2 has the same nutritional values as this version. It's actually the only one I was aware of. Plus they have a chocolate flavored on as well! I'd love for these manufacturers to come out with more nut butter flavors in powdered form. They're awesome!

You can buy this from the company's website, through Amazon for find a store the carries them on their site.

Picked up PB2 today and made a serving to test. I test everything on my husband who hasn't had surgery yet. Like Mikey from the old life Cereal commercials. It passed. I am only just starting thick liquids and had to restrain myself from eating more than a taste.

They also make a PB2 with chocolate. I got a sample at a local outdoor store but REI probably has it too.

Finally feeling like I haven't made a mistake. The last 9 days have been tough. Better now!

I actually found a Peanut Butter Protein shake at the Vitamin Shoppe today. I'm saving it for a Meal Replacement during my pre-op diet.
