Lisa_85 118 Posted March 20, 2016 I am about 2 ½ months post op and finding it very hard to get my Protein in on the weekend. I am fine during the week because I have a desk I sit at and can constantly be looking at the clock but on the weekend, I forget to eat. Until I having someone asking me if I had eaten yet? Anyone else having this problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danadoo 41 Posted March 20, 2016 Have a Protein Shake mid-morning and mid-afternoon. Premier Protein shakes are 30g of Protein - 160 cal. That's 60g right there. (Or at least a shake of some kind) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan TN 348 Posted March 20, 2016 Yes, i struggle on the weekends with all the boys activities, going here and there, working around the house. I don't get all my Vitamins in on the weekend sometimes too. I just do the best i can, throw a premier shake in the cooler as i leave and buckle down and get back on track monday.

I was told not to drink coffee & I sure do miss it I've mixed it with an almond milk/coconut blend. It tastes good, depending on what flavor Protein you like. I've been doing some unflavored protein in my 64oz jug of walmarts brand of crystal light. I buy cherry limeade and strawberry watermelon..... I'm totally hooked, that stuff is amazing! I'm even freezing it in Popsicle molds! I get bored easily so I have to change it up. But I must say I never tire of my protein coffee in the A.M. It's what I look forward to when I wake up. My routine is wake up, bathroom routine, weigh in, Vitamins, Water and start everyone's Breakfast while brewing my coffee. I still sit at the table with my family and don't feel as if I'm missing out on anything. Some whip cream and powdered cinnamon are common on those mornings when I need an extra something!!
