Best portable protein snacks?



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

So being a newbie still only 7-8 weeks out. Im trying to find ideas of portable Protein "meals" to bring. I still only eat 1/4cup ... about 2 oz per meal. I was trying to find easy things that go down, to bring with me on the run. Any ideas greatly appreciated

i always make sure to have a Protein bar stashed in my purse. sargenteno makes little snack cups with cheese and nuts that are easy to bring anywhere too!

That is a great point. Sorry my phone is acting up. I would do it on the run, but they have a high sugar content cause of the fruit and would go to waste :/. Unless you have ideas about that

I've found good Protein choices have changed throughout the process. At first, cheese sticks were a good choice. Now I like toasted almonds (I buy them raw and toast in the toaster oven). I like some Protein Bars, but prefer these kinds of options. But you are right to carry something with you. My blood sugar can nose-dive very quickly and I need to eat something immediately no matter where I happen to be at the time. This continues 1.5 years out from surgery.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
