protein 60-90 grams

[trainerlady 0]

Im trying to get this.... Im on mushies, only a few tblspns at a time, and Im supposed to do 20 gr Protein mixed w/ milk btwn each meal. Do I get this with the protein powders? Im able to handle the 64oz. fluids by sipping, sipping etc. Am I on the right path??? Lost 11 lbs. in the first wk post op. feeling good-but starving at times. MY nut tells me I wont be hungry if I get the required protein in. Suggestions:cursing:

You're right! Protein takes longer to digest so it will stave off hunger longer. Post surgery, I've been drinking Slim Fast LOW CARB. It has 20 grams of protein per can and only 2 grams of carbs. Don't mistake it for the "high protein" version, which has only 15 grams of protein. I really like the chocolate. The vanilla is just okay to me, but I never liked vanilla ice cream either. Other than that, I think you're doing fantastic!

I used the New Whey Protein bullets because in only 3 oz of liquid it had 42g of protein. I found it to be the easiest way to get all of the required protein in per day.

I used whey Protein bullets to get the extra protein. Try the 42 gram ones. Blue Raspberry tasted the best in my opinion. Protein helped with the hunger. You officially in lapband hell. Things will get better I promise. Keep at it. Your doing great.:smile2:

I bought mine at GNC. They aren't cheap, but you only need them immediately after banding during the clear liquid stage. It is just soooo easy to get your required Protein for the day. Be sure to buy the 42g ones, because they make one that has like 23g also. Bearbandit likes the blueberry, but I preferred the tropical punch. They are kind of thick and have a tart taste that my husband compared to sweet tarts. Some people mix it with crystal light, but I drank it straight. Two sips and you have an ounce already down. It is easy.:smile2:

Bariatric Advantage also has a version of these! many flavors to choose from, among other items. They have 25g, or 50g...your choice. I like em!!

Hello All!

I buy Whey prptein Isolate from NutraBio. Protein Isolate is the highest quality and most absorbable Protein available.

Buy discount protein, Vitamins, sports supplements at NutraBio.com.

It comes in 15 flavors including flavorless. I buy it in 5lb jugs ($40, lasts for months). It has 25grms of protein per scoop. I like the flavorless because I can add it to ANYTHING, and I can control the amount of protein I injest using 1/2, 1 whole scoop or even more depending on my need.

Try not to get all of your protein from drinks. Eat protein rich food. At the end of the day, if you haven't gotten all of your protein, add some Protein powder to slim fast or no sugar added instant Breakfast.

I begin my day with an instant breakfast with 1/2 scoop of whey isolate (26grms protein). At the end of the day, I have another shake adding the protein necessary to reach 60grms for the day.

Hope this helps someone.

I use one 11 oz Atkins high Protein low carb shake with 2 shots of 25 gram Protein Powder. This is 65 grams of protein and very low carb and 380 calories.
