Quick and easy high protein healthy snacks/meals?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone!

I recently found a great snack/small meal and I would love to share.

One medium banana

1/2 cup high Protein plain Greek yogurt

1-2 tablespoon of PB2 powered Peanut Butter

Mix the PB2 in the yogurt- and your done! You can use the yogurt mixture as a dip for your banana which you can cut up and eat with a fork/spoon slowly. It's low calorie- very high Protein. (About 20g depending on how much yogurt and pb2 you use).

Anyone else have great quick and easy snacks/small meals they make?!

I'm still at the stage where I'm trying to lose weight at a high rate.

Avoiding stuff like bananas and Peanut Butter at the moment.

Last night's dinner is how I've been rolling....mostly all Protein and fat. Grilled tuna & lobster with teriyaki, butter and wasabi.

There are around 30 grams of carbs in the banana alone, depending on the size. That's too much for a snack or even a meal for me.

I container of dannon light & fit greek yogurt has 9 grams of carbs and 12 grams of Protein.

Bariatric Choice sells a Jello type desert. It has low calories & a good amount of Protein. One box gives me 2 servings. I keep it on hand for when I want something sweet. I also put 2 packs of Splenda in the mix because I like sweet stuff.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
