Has anyone tried this product, specifically the Power Cakes (Protein Packed Flapjack & Waffle Mix)? They have it on sale at my local costco and I was wondering how they taste. According to the nutrition label, 1/2 cup of mix has 14g of Protein. At $9 I may as well buy a box and check, but wanted to ask first. Here is their website: Breakfast.. maybe add some berries or banana to dress them up a little.

They rock. I have been eating them for years. Get some Walden Farms Syrup, it tastes delicious.

They are thin and crepe like. If you want them a litlle thicker add a tablespoon of coconut flour.

Seem a bit high in carbs for the weight loss phase. Maybe in maintenance.... 25 net carbs is a lot for one meal.

I was really looking forward to giving them a try, but I see the mix has soy in it. I am extremely allergic to soy. Rats!

I did try a carrot cupcake recipe that I found in a pamphlet that was taped onto the last tub of Quest Protein Powder that I bought.

Each cupcake has (with cream cheese/protein frosting) 13g-protein,3g-net carbs (15 total carbs), 2g Fiber and 140calories. For a Valentines' Day treat, they are tasty.

There is also a recipe for crepes, but I haven't tried that one yet.

I bought my Quest at GNC, but I know that this site sells it at their store.

In my opinion it is the best Protein powder that I have tried. Each shake hhas 22-23gr of protein, 100-110cal, <1g sugar. --and the taste is excellent!

      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.
