Morning Protein



Recommended Posts

So glad to help. I like the Mocha Java and Cappuccino is my favorite; the vanilla nut and the hazelnut are ok, but not my total fave. Whichever which one you get, though, is better than that wallpaper paste stuff...I buy the stuff by the case b/c I am pretty tight in the morning; two of those, the gym, and a Apex fruit fuel bar are pretty much my whole food intake til about one or so....

Carnation Instant Breakfast was the best for me I added 1/4 cup of non fat powdered milk to boost the Protein, you can aslo add some Peanut Butter to the chocolate and some cinnamon to the vanilla. I too am not a breakfast person and never will be .My doc told me to just adjust my eating to my time schedule. so I have coffee in the morning then at 11 I eat breakfast,usually some hummus and carrots. around 3 I have some Soup for lunch then I eat dinner at 7 . It seems to work and at least you are not forcing yourself to drink that nasty protein.

I haven't tried them yet, but I'm going to try these recipes using Carnation Instant Breakfast. I've been drinking it cold every morning but once the weather gets colder I think I'll want something warm and these recipes look really good.

Coltonwade...You had recommended those Bolthouse Farms drinks before and on your recommendation I tried them and let me just say the Mocha Cappucino is delicious! Unfortunately none of the stores around here seem to sell the Hazelnut Latte or I'd get that one too. I bought the Vanilla Chai Tea and didn't really like it that much...a bit too sickly sweet. I love Chai tea, but didn't really care for that one. But the other one was yum! Thanks for suggesting those. :)

I have been buying protien bars for breakfast, i have tried slimfast optima (good) proti-life (good) and Body for Life (blechh).

I was a protien shake in the morning person, but my band doc, insists on NOT drinking calories, or drinking food.

I am finding The protien bars a little more portable, and there is no washing of cups involved !!

I have not tried the Vanilla since i dont really care for Vanilla drinks much anyway . I LOVE LOVE The Mocha and the Hazelnut though .

I would ask the stores you get the Mocha at if they can get you the Hazelnut ?

Glad you liked them

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
