Lebim 381 Posted November 2, 2012 My surgeon said I need to have no less than 80 grams of Protein per day. Problem is I'm rarely home because of work and school so I just can't seem to get the 80 grams in. There's just not enough time in the day!!! I drink a 30g Protein shake every morning. I was taking nuts to school with me but my surgeon said they're too fatty and to stop :/ I'd really prefer to not have to bring a cooler with me everywhere I go. - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have meal ones,snack ones and indulgent ones. I like the one that's like a PayDay. It has 16 carbs but only 3 net carbs.
