flumd0612 11 Posted October 28, 2015 How is everyone doing with getting all their Protein in? I am finally taking in some soft/semi-soft foods but am having a hard time getting in all the protein that I need to take in. I start the day with a Protein shake, one of the ones with a higher amount of protein (Pure Protein, OhYeah, others), which gives me about 1/2 my daily need, but I am struggling to get the rest. I have become temporarily (I hope) lactose-intolerant, so I am somewhat limited to tuna, chicken or eggs....and I am getting sick of them!! Does anyone have any ideas of how I might get some more protein without having to drink another one of these revolting shakes!!! BTW...3 weeks out and I have lost 31.4 pounds!

BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted October 28, 2015 Unflavored Protein (try plain soy if lactose intolerant) added to Soup or broth. Nut butter for a snack. When you make egg salad instead of mayo use half plain Greek yogurt and half mayo. It taste the same but boost your protein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TobysMom 2 Posted November 5, 2015 I like the Isopure Zero Carb Protein Drinks in the 20 oz. bottles. They have a bunch of flavors (grape, apple, punch, blue raspberry). they are 160 cals, 40 g Protein - lactose free! They are a little pricey but the Vitamin Shop has them on sale now. I bought a few cases of them to stock up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
