pumpkin spice protein shake



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow morning I am trying a new concoction for Breakfast. I took a scoop of vanilla Protein, half teaspoon cinnamon, quarter teaspoon of nutmeg and ground cloves and will put 1/4 cup pumpkin and skim milk and ice and blend. My fingers are crossed that it turns out because I am sick of breakfast.

Anyone have pumpkin shake recipes they want to share? I have wanted a pumpkin lattee since fall started but alas too much sugar...

I myself have been craving pumpkin anything and I found several pumpkin recipes on bariatricfoodie. Please let me know how your shake turns out I might have to try it.

I found some pumpkin purée canned at the dollar store, it has more Protein than carbs and a ton of Vitamin A.... You should be able to add it to anything with some spices ;)

GNC actually sells pumpkin pie shake... It is decent, not overly sweet :)

I am planning to use pumpkin puree. One for the Fiber and also flavor ( with spices of course). Some recipes I have seen use yogurt too but I thought I would keep it simple to start then doctor it up from there.

Ok I tried it this morning it was pretty yummy! Tomorrow I am going to put more spice in. For those that like sweets I would use vanilla yogurt cut with milk or even splenda. I like non sweet drinks so the milk only was fine.

An added bonus is I stayed full for 4 hours on less than 200 calories and 30 grams of Protein. Yay!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
