Protein?

[Mcgann320 26]

Does anyone have any tips to getting all my Protein in daily? I'm easily getting all my liquids in, except I'm not really tolerating Protein Drinks (they make me feel yucky). I'm eating Oikos Greek Triple Zero which is 15g of protein in one cup, but am looking for more options, anyone tried powdered milk as a source of protein? Any ideas?

I still drink a Premier Protein RTD in chocolate every day. That is 30 grams. The rest I get from food.< /p>

Every Protein drink that I have tried makes me want to vomit so I am in the same boat.

I have found the Think Thin Protein Bars are pretty good and they have 20g in a small bar. I can only eat half at a time so I do morning and bed time snack.< /p>

I love PB2 just on a spoon.

tuna and scrambled eggs are my go to foods. Deli turkey or ham as well.

How far out from surgery are you? What phase are you?

If you don't like Protein shakes you might want to try ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates. It's what I was given in the hospital and they really helped me get my Protein in early out.

My program does allow adding powdered milk to increase the protein count of milk.

You also might try no sugar added carnation instant Breakfast.

When I was on full liquids I was allowed cottage cheese in addition to greek yogurt. I also ate a lot of Protein Soup.< /p>

Did you NUT give you a list of options?

I'm always changing my Protein drinks up. My program calls for 60-90 grams just from drinks, in addition to food. For a few weeks I was drinking two Premier Protein drinks daily to meet the minimum. This week I've started making drinks again using frozen fruit, yogurt, milk and Protein powder (either unflavored, banana or orange depending on what flavor I'm going for).

In the first few weeks post-surgery I found that I had to drink them really slowly, but as time has passes it has gotten easier. I can drink the Premier Protein shakes the fastest, I think because they are the thinnest.

I've also found it easiest to get all the Protein in when I'm on a schedule.

Try Atkins stuff. I love their Protein Bars, snack bars and their treats.
