MegInNOLA 531 Posted July 22, 2012 I like, and my sleeve tolerates, all dairy sources of Protein, plus veggie sources--beans, peas, lentils, nuts, tofu, avocado. I also really love shellfish--shrimp, crawfish, lobster (ha! had some on a cruise, not at home, that's for sure). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bakawaka 59 Posted August 6, 2012 This search on Google can help: tofu recipes ("low fat" OR "low calorie" OR healthful) Also, you can puree tofu in the blender along with some splenda or equal + Water or milk + fruit or Protein powder - even green leafy vegetables, such as spinach!. Puree it on the highest speed (I have a VitaMix). Add a few ice cubes and puree them as well. You have a smoothee. You essentially turntofu into a liquid. This pureeing technique works with firm, medium, soft and silken textures of tofu. I do find that different brands of tofu have different flavors. My own personal favorite brand is Mori Nu. You can order cases of Mori Nu online. But other people might find other brands to be better. Tofu always has helped me lose weight in the past. I hope that this information is helpful.

1920-Zeta 64 Posted August 6, 2012 Trying to find new forms of Protein ! Any ideas? Tried turkey bacon ughh didn't like it! I need ideas I use unflavored Protein from GNC. I mix it with applesauce. I got to have the applesauce ice cold. It has 21 grams of Proteins per scoop. I can't do vanilla, etc. "GOD IS WORKING ON YOUR BEHALF ,SO Keep having faith."<br />Your Sleeve Buddy <br />Zeta<br /> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*susan* 1,709 Posted August 6, 2012 Have you tried hummus, I absolutely love it, it is a good snack and has Protein in it. I also eat a lot of cheese, nuts, chicken and a Protein shake every morning. Sent from my iPad using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melbelinc 33 Posted August 6, 2012 Peanut Butter on an apple, Hummus with some crackers. cheese with grapes. These are things m NUT suggested. Basically pair Protein with any carbs. I had asked for ideas of protein that wasn't meat. I have been eating this combos for the last week and lost almost 2 lbs this week. I was super nervous because it was new things but as long as that scale is going down and I am satisfied.... I'm good with it! Check our The South Beach books. SOOOOO many ideas!!!!

bakawaka 59 Posted August 10, 2012 Hummus can be a great substitute for Mayonnaise on low-carb bread for sandwiches. There is hummus at Trader Joe's (I do not have a financial interest in Trader Joe's or any hummus company) with and without tahini. There also are many flavors.

My husband also picked up some Protein pancake mix at a Vitamin store. I figure that will be a good once in a while source of protein also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
