Yay got at least 60gr of protein with out a shake today!



Recommended Posts

I am so happy to know that it is possible to meet Protein intake without shakes or drinks.< /p>

I hit 63gr today normally I will drink 2 shakes a day for the 60gr and any protein from food was a bonus.

Sorry just had to share with others that would understand, my boyfriend just looked at me with a blank face like I was a nut when I got excited over this. :)

The last time I got this excited was when I realized I had a collar bone ( My first NSV) :)

Happy New Year everyone!!! ( I know I am a little early)

I am still new to all of this (have a lot of learning to do) so I am sure I may be racking up somewhere else like carbs or calories and I shouldnt be, it was mostly the Snacks and today was my first day trying them but they are super high in calories and carbs so I think they may be an every other week snack lol. I am going to try adding cottage cheese, eggs, yougart...and see if I can reach at least 60gr again as these are foods that I also eat but haven't been logging everything in everyday (Shame on me).

      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.
