RNBSN786 206 Posted August 6, 2014 My snack consists of string cheese, cottage cheese, mixed nuts, Greek yogurt, blueberries or cherries. That's really about it. If I need in between meals and if I am at home, I tend to also make a nice Protein shake with PB2, half a banana and benefiber. It all depends on my mood and where I am at. Your Snacks sound and look good 2 Mrs.RRn and Dreamin Again reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RNBSN786 206 Posted August 6, 2014 @@RNBSN786 How's PB2? I had it in my hand at the store the other day & put it back. I was initially skeptical and once I bought pb2 and added it to my shakes, I was in heaven. I didn't like pb before surgery and then after surgery I started to eat pb by itself and then read on the forums about pb2 and made the purchase. I also got chia seeds and yet to try it in my shakes. If you like pb you will love pb2. GNC also has it for cheaper price. I got mine on Amazon. There is chocolate pb2 and regular pb2 and honestly both taste the same. 2 Mrs.RRn and Deedee13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chelly 364 Posted August 6, 2014 I have to eat every two hours to keep my blood sugar up or I get very weak and majorly dizzy also other symptoms. I eat nuts, Quest bars, soy Protein chips, egg white chips, cheese and I really try to stay with Protein but if it dips to low my blood levels then I have to eat something with sugar in it or I have to potential of passing out. I love PB2 in the regular or chocolate. I add it to shakes. Target carries it in their Peanut Butter isle. 2 Mrs.RRn and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RNBSN786 206 Posted August 7, 2014 what is PB2? Pb2 stands for Peanut Butter. I don't know what 2 is...pb2 is in powder form vs regular peanut butter. Much much healthier for you then peanut butter by itself. 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mi75 1,235 Posted August 7, 2014 YUM, that apple with blue cheese and walnut looks AWESOME!!! yesterday my snack was a Cookies and Cream Quest bar. i'm super pathetic this week and have yet to get to the grocery store so i've stood in the kitchen and 'snacked' on a cold slice of deli meat, a few peanuts, and a hunk of meatloaf straight from the fridge.... gotta get to the store tonight for baby bel, some laughing cow garlic/herbs, grapes, then to the farm stand for a honey rock melon, some green Beans, yellow Beans, tomatoes, etc. can't wait! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terry1118 1,274 Posted August 7, 2014 what is PB2? PB2 is real Peanut Butter minus the oil. You can use the powder to add real peanut butter flavor to lots of things. My husband adds it to his vanilla Protein Shake w/banana; or to his chocolate shake for a Reeses peanut butter cup flavor (he's a body builder, not a WLS patient). My nut says you can reconstitute it by adding a little Water for a nonfat version of peanut butter (I haven't tried doing it). You can buy PB2 pretty cheap at Walmart. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ava324 413 Posted August 7, 2014 At this point (8 months post-op), I very rarely snack. If I do it's string cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, turkey pepperoni, turkey Jerky, laughing cow wedge or PB2 & a flat bread cracker, popcorn, or 1/2 Quest bar. Regarding PB2 - It makes a great addition to shakes. I added some to an Eggface 5min cake (http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2010/04/that-takes-cake.html) (I used Syntrax Matrix Peanut Butter cookie Protein powder, PB2, and topped with sugar free strawberry jelly and fat free whipped cream). By itself (mixed with Water as directed), PB2 tastes very much like straight peanuts. I mean, it's supposed to, but I add a little vanilla Torani to sweeten it.

Squid 23 Posted August 7, 2014 Today I brought 2 hard boiled eggs with a little yellow mustard to squirt on. Sounds gross but its actually pretty good especially on the yolk. I do those nature valley Protein Bars a lot too. The almond one is aweeesome. 1 Mrs.RRn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
