Coffee Lovers recipe



Recommended Posts

For those who love coffee and have a hard time with getting their protien shakes in.

I had a hard time with protien shakes after surgery. i had read about Syntrax nectar, the company is now owned by Bariatric Advantage.

So I tried the caribbean cooler and it was a bit to sweet for me but very doable.

Back to yesterday and my trip to the Vitamin shoppe. They had a wide variety of the Syntrax Nectar. They had both sample size and the big tubs.

I got the Cappuccino and also the choclate.

I took about 8oz of Decaf coffee and one scoop of the Cappuccino and mixed it in a blender. End result it taste pretty good if you like those international delight cappuccino mix. It is 100 calories and 23 grams of protien. Plus it is a no sugar and no carb mix.

Also the chocolate was very good.

Chike brand of Protein coffee is awesome. Good hot or cold. Add unsweetened cocoa powder to make a mocha. I bought it online direct.

I am a coffeeholic! Some of my favorite coffee Protein drinks:

  • 1 scoop Chike (standard serving for Chike is two scoops, but I only use one because otherwise it is too high calorie for me) + 2 tsp instant espresso powder, mixed with skim milk, or Carbmaster milk if that is available
  • 1/2 packet Syntrax Nectar cappucino + 1/2 scoop Unjury chocolate splendor, mixed with milk
  • 1 scoop Unjury chocolate splendor + 2 tsp instant espresso powder + 1 shot Torani sugar free almond roca Syrup, mixed with milk - makes a delicious chilled amaretto mocha Protein Shake.< /li>

      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.
