Powdered peanut butter.. tastes like Peanut Butter just less oily and you can make it as thick or thin as you like. Also 85% less fat and calories. I'm totally addicted. I get mine from Amazon or Walmart. They have regular and chocolate. .. mu personal favorite

Just out of curiosity, what PB2 made out of? Powdered food makes me leery. I like good old fashioned pb (Trader Joes jus peanuts and salt). Has to be crunchy and can't be refrigerated (can't spread it).

Okay, now that we have PB2 all figured out, does anyone know if you can have Peanut Butter during the purée stage?

I could have pnut butter in purée phase. Be careful, it's rich and can sit heavy at first.

Sorry, couldn't answer your op :{ . But I guess with the PB2 you could at least get your peanut butter flavor craving filled even in the full liquid stage.

Sorry, had somewhat of an emergency earlier so couldn't respond. I haven't tried regular Peanut Butter because I'm trying to be smarter about my choices. The PB2 isn't exactly like regular peanut butter but it's really darn good and an option I feel good about. Hope that helps :)

When I was on purées I often ended the day with a teaspoon of Peanut Butter because I wasn't able to eat anywhere near enough calories. I mentioned this to my nutritionist and she said it was fine!

Yes, Pbutter is OK. ALSO consider Hummas, a staple of mine.

I had it on puree stage! Watch the sugar content, though. Not everyone dumps, but some people do and I REALLY did!!!

I haven't tried the PB2 for the reason that I was worried by it too! Knowing that it's pretty natural though I'll have to check it out. Wonder how they get it powdered ..?

        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
