futuremrsparker 288 Posted August 21, 2013 So, my pouchy does NOT like Breakfast. Nothing about it other than a cup of Decaf coffee appeals to me or my belly. I ordered some Click Protein, which should be in today. I am praying this will stick because it doesn't even like normal protein shakes.. I can't stand eggs since surgery, so theyre a no go. I've basically been eating cheese and crackers, which doesn't provide enough protein for a meal. :/ My doctor wants me to get more protein than I have been getting, but I can't seem to find any "artificial" protein sources that will hang out in my tummy without having to gag them down.

pookybear 284 Posted August 21, 2013 Have you tried Quest Protein Bars? I have them sometimes for breakfast. Or oatmeal with some unflavored Protein added. For shakes, I drink the Atkins shakes and I mix them in with my coffee.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rem 87 Posted August 21, 2013 I usually always have a Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, usually strawberry banana. Every morning. Or ometimes I have a couple bites of 50% less fat Corn Beef Hash and about a half of a scrambled egg every once in a while. I did find these waffles in the freezer section of my store, its Vans Natural food Power Grains Protein waffles. They are really good. A serving is 2 but I obviously have 1 and its only 90 calories, 2.5 g fat, little high on carbs with 13 carbs, 3 sugars and 5 grams Protein, they are really good.

Lol I'm so weird about food textures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kat23 47 Posted August 21, 2013 Try heating the Quest bars for 15 seconds. Much better. Everyday I have cottage cheese with chopped nectarines and slivered almonds on top. 15 grams of Protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
califmomto4 84 Posted August 21, 2013 I usually have yogurt. Maybe a mini Babybel? I think you could eat anything if its not " breakfast food" if chicken or shrimp for breakfast sounds good to you do that. I bought some of the Quest Protein bars because everyone was raving about them. I had to track them down. I tried apple pie... Couldn't do it. The texture is like taffy...I don't know its just weird. Overly processed and it kinda grosses me out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristlynngirl 184 Posted August 21, 2013 I found Protein bars that are like wafer cookies! 200 calories, 15g protein and only 5g sugar. They're called Power Crunch Protein Energy Bars. This morning I had Peanut Butter fudge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elli'smommy 160 Posted August 22, 2013 nectar makes a Cappuccino Protein Powder that I mix with a cup of Decaf coffee. The whole packet is 100 cals, 23g Protein and 0 sugar. I mix it with an immersion blender and it froths up like a cappuccino is suppose to. Pretty delicious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
