When did you go from shakes to protein bars?



Recommended Posts

I am only asking for the reason of being out for the day. I go out shopping for the whole day, on like a day off or something.SHOP A HOLIC!!!! Lol

Go out on the town and shop til I drop.

Its so hard to have shakes while being out all day.

When did you transition into taking a Protein bar instead?

Im on soft food til next month.. See my nutritionist next month too..

Just wondering.. Thanks for any tips!

Well, I think I was at about 1/2 or two months out. I had to travel for work and needed something portable. And for shopping as well. :-) I still do shakes and I am at 7 months.

The first bar I used was Pure Portein chocolate. Low in sugar and carbs. It is also very soft so I let it melt in my mouth. I think I ate 1/4. Waited. Then tried the other 1/4. Only could do a 1/2 bar at a time.

I carry a Protein Bar in my pocket book all the time, just in case. But if I know I am going to be out and about all day I always pack my "care package" which is in a thermal lunch tote. I keep a couple cheese sticks, pack of tuna (premixed) a shake and Water in it with an ice pack. Never hurts to be over prepared! I find that if i dont plan to keep this with me (at least in the car) I tend to pop in to a fast food place and it always ends up being something I shouldnt have.

Failing to plan is planning to fail! (what my granny use to tell me anyway!)

I go out a lot, I always take a few bottles of Water with me and I have a container that u hold powder baby formula in. It has 6 slots for servings of powder baby formula and I just fill it with my powder Protein. Then if I need my protein I just pour the protein in the water and shake it up !

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.

        I'm so sorry. I lost my pup (Mr. Bitters - a chocolate Pomeranian) 2 years ago and it still makes me tear up. He was my everything - my constant companion. I understand. Do the best you can to get back on track.
