I had gastric bypass on Wednesday I got out of the hospital today.I'm feeling great my only problem is I'm not taking in enough protien.

I'm 3 weeks post op and still trying to figure out Protein. I am hoping it gets better with time. Best of Luck to you.

Me too so far I've seen the highest source of Protein is chicken and I'm still having trouble with it lol

I can't seem to get all of my Protein in either. I guess it will take time.

When I had the lapband I loved chicken. So with the rny what kinds of meats digest well?

Have you tried ground chicken? I use ground chicken in place of ground beef in my house for nearly everything (chili, tacos, etc). I've had problems with regular chicken breast with my lapband but been ok with ground. Hope I don't have issues after my revision to RNY. I don't always trust the ground chicken in the store so I usually pick out nice chicken breasts, take it to the butcher and have them grind it down so I know what I'm getting. Being in Kuwait, I don't always trust the stickers that say boneless/skinless. Labels out here are terribly inaccurate.

30days after RNY a 1 inch square peice of chic wrenched my gut so bad that I bleed out. I still can't do chic & pork is a little tuff.

I bought a ton of Protein Shakes be fore I had surgery I decided to buy some popsicle makers today and make some Popsicles out of them because just drinking protien everyday is very boring.

I love fish and turkey in addition to chicken. All three are loaded with Protein but especially the fish. Even canned tuna - 7 oz can has 39g of protein. Shrimp is another great source of protein. We always keep some in the fridge. Tilapia and salmon are also good choices. There is an amazing variety of turkey things out there too - turkey sausage, turkey bacon, turkey kielbasa, ground turkey, turkey Soups - all very rich in protein and I found them to be surprisingly good!

Canned tuna and salmon have been great for me. They are both high in Protein and they go down well with fat free mayo and mustard. As far as the shakes I bought the Ninja blender and I use soy milk and ice in my shakes and sugar free Torani syrups so that makes then good too!

I'm just on stage so I'm only on liquids for the next 3weeks that why I need liquid idea for protien shake.< /p>
