I get about 600-700 calories a day, and today was the first day I have been over 55 grams of Protein. I haven't had any problems after the first couple weeks, when I was extremely tired and nauseas.

It's 1 tablespoon is 13g of protein. Bag is abt $19 for 16oz bag. I live in Illinois so I buy in Woodmans in Kenosha Wisc. I've bought the unflavored protein from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and that's abt $20 for a 12.7 OZ. and 1 scoop is 21g protein but is abt 4 1/2 tablespoon. I found I got more from the Georgia. Ultra whey non BGH Protein Isolate. It's in the purple bag. Meants instant, for ppl on the go and just need to mix manually. The others from my understanding, you need to use a blender. Website: www.balance-by-georgia.com Or you can email: gianisch@charter.net Address on bag: Body Balance by Georgia, LLC 1514 Dayton Drive Janesville, WI 53546 Phone: 608-754-2000 I'm on my 3rd bag. I put a tablespoon in my Decaf coffee in am. In my pudding, applesauce everything I can put it in. Just so I can get my 60g of protein daily. And it's tasteless. There are many diff ones. The ones I get is Purple bcuz it's instant. For ppl on the go and will mix easily. Hope this is helpful ) 1 nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkinnyScrapper 57 Posted August 20, 2013 July 17 I was sleeved. Have lost about 30 lbs - about 4 Pre-op. it doesn't really show yet. I guess it is because I have 100+ to drop. I went shopping with my daughter last week and it willbe a long time before I am in "normal" clothes. Slow and steady...every day is progress. I keep telling myself how much work it is to drop 30 lbs! 1 nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blash67 82 Posted August 20, 2013 I was sleeved 7/10 and have lost 27# since 2 week preop diet prior. About 7# was lost preop. So, I started at 273 and I'm down to 247. I am through the liquid and mushy stages and diet now is to consist of (3) 3 oz sizes Protein, (1) 2 oz size Protein, (2) 1/4 c soft veg, and (2) 1/4 c fruit. I'm taking nutrametrix multi, Calcet and Celebrate Calcium chews, (3) 1000 mcg B12 a week, protonix (PPI), Vitamin D 2000 IU. I am getting about 6 hrs of exercise in a week (Water aerobics and Zumba mostly). I have tried some foods that I shouldn't, like popcorn, which is a total slider. My one buyers remorse so far is not knowing more about sliders. I did alot of research ahead of time. Lots of reading. Although I knew that the sleeve was just a tool and that I would have alot of work to do, I really didn't realize that so many of the foods I overate preop would not necessarily respond to the restriction and slide through. That will be a continuous challenge for me, but ... I don't plan on additional weight loss surgeries, and so I really need to make this work. 1 stamour1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nmck 68 Posted August 20, 2013 I need to find a good unflavored Protein to add to anything I eat or drink can anyone recommend any please, I been drinking the muscle milk and apparently it has to many calories I haven't lost any weight in three days I really like the unjury unflavored mixed into anything milky. I was given a can of Nestle Beneprotein at the hospital and liked that too. I think that beneprotein would mix in more easily than the Unjury.< /p> Blash, I understand how you feel. My NUT told me I could add in crackers next week. I told her that's a bad idea for me for sure! I'm going to try to reinvent my diet without those sliders.
