60 grams protein?



Recommended Posts

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!

I mix the following ingredients in a shaker bottle and drink half before and the rest after my walk:

Premier Ptotein shake: 30 gms Protein

1 5 oz container of greek yogurt: 13 gms

1/2 scoop of vanilla flavored protein powder: 15 gms

Total: 58 gms Protein/ 14 oz fluids

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

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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
