If you like Peanut Butter & or just want to get a good amount of Protein out of a meal this is great. It's also almost like a sweet treat. Just mix together a 6oz. container of your favorite plain Greek yogurt, 1 packet of whatever calorie free sweetener that you use regularly & 2 tbsp. of PB2 powdered peanut butter. It gives you 145 calories, 23g of protein and 13g carbs. If you want less carbs just use one tbsp. of the PB2. It doesn't taste quite as good as the 2tbsp. though. :P So glad to have this in my food rotation. Try it!

I haven't tried using regular PB. Way too high in calories, carbs, etc.

What is PB2?

PB2 is powdered Peanut Butter. You can add it to things like yogurt or Protein Shakes or mix it with Water to make peanut butter that has 85% less fat calories than even l-f pb. A lot of websites sell it. I'm sure you can Google it & get all the information you would ever need. I think that it's awesome!

What is PB2?

PB2 is this really wonderful product, it is Peanut Butter that has been pressed. They have removed most of the fat and sugar. Here is a link with some more information: http://www6.netrition.com/bell_plantation_pb2.html

I got this as a gift from my boyfriend's sister. She is a very healthy eater herself. I had put it in the cabinet & recently couldn't find it. Turns out my bf had taken it & hidden it because he thought it was some Nutella like treat that I wasn't sharing. Boy was he disappointed when he found out what it really was. LOL. Anyway, I need to order a bunch before I run out. I am LOVING this stuff!

I'm still pre-sleeve but have been adding extra Protein to my diet and in attempting to find a greek yogurt I like I added about a tblsp of natural PB and tsp. of splenda to yoplait greek. It was pretty good..and for after surgery PB2 would be what's needed. Building my protein arsenal! :)

@Michelle1977 Can you please share with me your recipe for chocolate PB2 shake. I have been playing around with it and im not having very good luck getting it to taste right. I don't know if im using too much powder, Water or not enough. Im trying to get these things all figured out before surgery so im not struggling to figure out after. Thank you in advance for your help :}

@Mini Me - I mix the Protein Shake with Water then I add in 1 TB PB2 w/ chocolate. There are 2 kinds of PB2. Regular PB2 and PB2 w/ chocolate. The chocolate in the 2nd PB just takes a little of the bitterness away (it is not like nutella or anything like that).

      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.
