Trying To Learn A New Way Of Eating Pre Op



Recommended Posts

I have been trying new things that are high in Protein. I actually like Greek yogurt but I'm having a hard time with cottage cheese. I can eat it but i don't enjoy it ( which is fine I'll still eat it for the protein). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to prepare cottage cheese to taste a lil better? What protien foods do you eat that is low in volume but high in protien other than the obvious such as meat? Thanks in advance, I know my taste may change but I'm trying to get an idea of mean sources of protien.

Add a little Torani peach Syrup to it. Or choppy he heck out of some canned peaches.

My nutritionist recommended ricotta cheese as an alternative since I'm not a huge cottage cheese fan either.

Sprinkle a little Mrs. Dash in it...It amps the flavor up without unecessary calories.

You can try farmers cheese. I am Russian and We make it at home :). It's yummy and not so strong in flavor.

The most important thing is to learn to eat slowly and small bites. That one takes a while

I had never heard of farmers cheese so I googled it & I'm going to try it, thanks. I have been practicing small bites/sips & chewing forever before I swallow :) hard than it sounds!

I just started putting salsa in my cottage cheese and I really like it. Also try ricotta with some maranara sauce. I eat a ton of shrimp and I make a greek yogurt wasabi sauce which I love on my salmon too. I tend to get most of my Protein from fish and cheese since I dislike meat. Just watch the calories with the cheese.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
