Pumpkin Pie Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

Hi All! I am 2 months post-op and having a difficult time getting in my Protein. I don't know about you, but the thought of Protein shakes makes me nauseous and frankly, I am burnt out on them. At the same time, I know they are a great way to get in a bunch of much needed protein. I whipped this up tonight and it is very delicious and filling. Not to mention I can't taste the Protein powder in it. Please enjoy!

pumpkin Pie Protein Shake:

1 cup 1% milk

1 scoop vanilla whey Protein Powder

1/2 c. pumpkin

1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp/ cinnamon

2 graham cracker sheets

1 cup ice

Directions: Blend and enjoy!

This sounds great! I'm about two months out too, and I'm getting pretty sick of my shakes as well. I might leave out the graham crackers, though, as grains don't really agree with me. Thank you for the recipe. ^_^

GNC total lean makes a Protein shake in pumpkin spice that I like-

I do *one scoop of pumpkin spice 12.5 G Protein, 1 scoop unflavored 10g protein and 8 oz fair life skim milk 13 G protein. It is 220 calories, but 35.5 g of protein and yummy but not to sweet! I am post op day 6 so I try to get as protein I can in one shake because it takes me a while to drink it or anything for that matter!

I might be advanced to soft dairy today.. Yeah!

* the directions say to use two scoops but it is too sweet for me that way.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
