Help with protein



Recommended Posts

I'm in Australia and haven't been able to find it anywhere. I make Protein balls using a powder and eat them for Breakfast and usually hit 70-90 grams a day with them and food alone.

Do you have a recipe for protein balls?

so I would reccommend purchasing genepro! it IS a Protein powder, but you can mix it in anything (it's flavorless). I try to stay away from shakes because I become so dependent on them/replace all of my meals with them. Instead, I eat "normal" now and since I drink a lot of coffee during the day, I just add GENEPRO to my coffee and I can never tell its there! I had it during my pureed stage too and would put it into pudding and stuff. works wonders! it's a tablespoon sized scoop and is 30 grams of Protein per scoop.

Where can you get that? Like Walmart or GNC?

They're pretty easy, but you have to like peanut paste as you use it as the main binding ingredient. Pm me and I'll email you the recipe if you want [emoji4]

You make a mixture with Protein Powder and other ingredients (you need something sticky like Peanut Butter or coconut oil the bind everything together) and you separate and roll them out [emoji4]

I would love the recipe, too, but I don't know how to send PMs.

I too am 4 months out and use GENEPRO daily. I make fruit smoothies every morning and add two scoops in them. I also add one scoop to my coffee and anything else is a bonus with my food intake! (which isn't much). You can order it on Amazon or genepro.com

      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.
