LIST THE PROTEINS YOU EAT(need ideas)



Recommended Posts

String cheese, tuna salad, egg salad, chicken salad, Protein Bars, scrambled eggs, taco salad. I don't like to cook so I will buy one of those chickens that's already cooked at Walmart. I can eat pieces of that for several days. I like the lemon pepper one the best. I can't remember who on here told me to dip it in spinach dip. I dip the breast in that because it's a little dry. That is very good.

yep the lemon pepper is the best now they have the garlic butter they gave me a sample one day it is moist and yummy but it is injected with butter so I will stay with the lemon

Don't forget--cottage cheese, walnuts are great so you get your Omega 3's, yogurt, lowfat string cheese, all the meats, fish, tuna, crab, shrimp, flax is also good for your omega 3's.

Make a 1 egg omelett with 2% cheese mmmmmmmmmmyummy.

Try to change it up so you don't get sick of the same things.

I'm 5 weeks out and have lost 25lbs and going to have my first fill on August 8th. Take Care, Leah

I'm scheduled to have the band on Aug.5th and my BMI is higher than they want so in order to still have the band on the 5th I have to reduce my BMI by a great deal. What is the best way? I can't drink those Protein Shakes they are awful.

CRABMEAT!!!

It's an excellent Protein, it goes down easy and it's delicious. My doctor even recommended it. I make crab salad, crab cakes...... I don't think it's been added to the list.

Lamb chops. It's not as dense a meat as beef, and is not as high in fat. I grill mine. I love it. You can also make lentil stew with the left overs, which is also high in Protein.< /p>

Hi ther i just found the neatest thing. You can get them at Walmart or any grocery store. They are a regular size can of tuna salad. They have 6 or so flavors. like sundried Tomato tuna salad and thai tuna salad, there filled with tuna and vegetables with a yummy sauce perfect can size for a meal with 17g of Protein and low calories. They are really good too. i caught them on sale for 1.89! now thats a cheap lunch. They even have a little spoon and a napkin.:)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
