Had surgery early February. And of courses. The beginning it is easier to loose weight. However I had to move to a different state two weeks after surgery. So my support system is lost just looking for suggestions and guidance in regards to ways everyone is getting their Protein in daily. What creative ways has everyone found to remain in track and get your daily protein ????

I have to put unflavored Protein in everything I can.

Is it really unflavored? Or is there a Tate to it. I have been thinking of trying the unflavored Protein.

It is unflavored to an extent. If you put too much (more than 1/4-1/2 scoop) then you can definitely taste a funky flavor. Just a little in anything you can helps tremendously. Also, I have been doing the Premier Protein chocolate shakes in the morning, they are 30g of Protein. Not the best tasting out of all of the shakes out there, but one of the highest in protein. If by the end of the day I am still running low on protein, I have another one. Just two per day will give you 60 grams of protein. You should be able to get the rest from your food and unflavored Protein powder. Hope this helps!!

Yes...too much unflavored Protein you can tell something is in there but I don't think it's bad. Just be careful on the temperature. ...Over 140 degrees and it will curdle. I put 1/2 scoop in my coffee every morning. ..makes it seem creamier. I use the Premier Protein shakes too. You just have to try different things until you find what you like. I also eat OS trim high protein Jerry sticks

Wal-mart has a 3.2 oz. bottle of New Whey which has 42 grams of Protein. It comes in different flavours which can be added to Water. It is 2.99 for a bottle, only drawback!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
