[bsmith720 0]

Hi all, I was sleeved Dec. 7th so far I'm down 50 lbs. Kinda getting bored with the same old Protein song and dance of cheese, chicken,yogurt looking for other ideas like nuts (what kinds,how many oz.)and any other snack or meal ideas. So far I've not had any problems keeping things down or pains (fingers crossed) so all ideas welcome Thanks

Great list! I am intrigued by the cottage cheese/ muscle milk idea. I will have to look that one up.

Don't know that there's anything to look up since I made it up..... I did a lot of experimenting with Protein powders early on. I basically just stir the cake batter Protein Powder in the cottage cheese and maybe add a splash of milk if it's too thick. Sorry, I don't measure stuff so I can't give you an exact recipe. I've sprinkled crumbled graham crackers on top for a super yummy treat, but that may be too many carbs for someone that tracks.
