Protein Shake Recipe I REALLY like



Recommended Posts

I have been trying to find a Protein shake that didn't taste like a Protein Shake and I think my wife has hit the nail on the head!

She knows I like Peanut Butter and chocolate is good with so much! So she created this for me. I just had a serving and it is soo good.

5 oz container of Danon Light n Fit Toasted Coconut Greek Yogurt

5 oz of low fat milk

3 tablespoons of Jiff Peanut powder

1 Scoop chocolate Protein Powder

4 ice cubes

4 oz serving has 22 grams of Protein

It may not be to everyone's liking, but it hits the spot for me.

Good luck to everyone and I hope you all have a wonderful day!

It looks like it would also have about 175 calories for a 4 ounce serving? That seems pretty high . . . but it does look delicious though!

I probably should have put this on the Post-Op side, since I am 10 days post op. So at this point I am struggling to get even 800 calories in.

This is the nutritional info I got from my fitness pal after I entered the recipe:

Calories: 163

Carbs: 12

Fat: 3

Protein: 24

Sodium: 116

Sugar: 4

@@ShrinkingPeach I did read the quantities, I did the math and assumed that the ingredients put together would come out to about 12 ounces total. Divide by 3 for a 4 ounce serving. And as you can see I wasn't far off as my estimate was 175 calories per serving and the OP gave the correct count as 163 calories :)

      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.
