Any Smoothie Ideas???



Recommended Posts

In the morning my restriction is at its greatest. I do use the smoothies every morning. You will find the different textures will effect your band as in going down or not and how long they last before you are hungry again. Experiment is all u can do.

Muscle Milk is the best for me and Myoplex deluxe....Any EAS product has always been good for me..

This is a juicer recipe,

1 whole carrot

1 stalk of celery

1 small green apple

1 little piece(and i mean little) piece of ginger root

put all this threw a juice and drink at room temp. or over ice

also tastes good with a little vodka....but not that i'd know...hehe

It makes a blender full so I use (2) 16 oz foam cups or (4) 8 oz foam cups. I freeze what I dont eat right away. If they freeze solid, I put the foam cup in the micro on defrost for 1 1/2 minutes (power 3). It makes it edible by spoon. So YUMMY!! Since they are frozen and portable, I take them to work for my afternoon Protein snack!

I also added these to the recipe section. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do!

Here are a few of my own favorites-

strawberry banana Protein smoothie (90 grams of protein!)

-handful of frozen strawberries (slightly defrosted-I leave 'em on the counter for about 10 minutes or put in micro on defrost for 45 seconds)

-1 ripe frozen banana (i break up ripe bananas into quarters and freeze)

-2 scoops of banana Protein powder

-2 scoops of strawberry Protein Powder

-1/2 cup of generic splenda

-1 cup diet cranberry juice

Tropical Protein Smoothie (It is close to the Tropical Trio from Keva juice - minus the calorie and plus the protein!)

-1/4 cup frozen mango chunks

-1/4 cup frozen peaches

-1/4 cup frozen strawberries

-1 frozen banana

-1 small can of pineapple chunks in their own juices

-2 scoops banana protein powder

-2 scoops strawberry protein powder

-dash of vanilla

-1/2 cup generic splenda

-1 cup diet cranberry juice or Water

      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.
