Recommended Posts

Ok so I am on normal foods and can have Protein Bars. I found a recipe to make my own! No baking!

They smell like Reeces Peanut Butter Cups!!

I will be able to try these later once they have chilled in the fridge for a bit!

SORRY!!!!

HOMEMADE Protein BARS

Ingredients (Makes 12 Bars)

- 8 scoops chocolate Protein powder – I used whey Tech Pro 24 Rich Chocolate
- 1 cup oatmeal
- 1/3 cup natural Peanut Butter – I used PB2 mixed with Water
- 3 tbsp honey – I used imitation honey
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 3 tbsp crushed peanuts

Directions

1. Mix together the Protein Powder, oatmeal, Peanut Butter, honey and milk.
2. Form into 12 bars and then roll in the crushed peanuts to finish.
3. Place in the fridge for about 30-45 mins or until solid

It is pretty hard to mix and will seem like it is too dry.. you have to use elbow grease to get it mixed well… rolling in the peanuts doesn’t work that great so you will need to press the nuts into the bars.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
