I asked about this on the main board...got some good feedback!!


For long term weight loss success, your gastric bypass post-op eating plan should include liquid protein. Now that you'll be eating small, nutrient-dense meals, make sure you’re getting the recommended 60 grams of protein a day to help you heal and prevent muscle loss.* New Whey Liquid Protein is the delicious, easy-to-digest way to get enough protein to promote healthy weight loss.

HIGH PROTEIN SNACKS

peanut butter and whole wheat crackers

celery with meat salad- fill a celery stalk with tuna salad, ham salad or chicken salad

White bean dip spread on baked tortilla chips or vegetables
(to make dip..mash canned chick peas, white beans, or cannellini beans and season with salt, pepper, chili powder, and a dash of olive oil and lemon juice.!  I think you can make your own home made baked pita chips..just cut some pita bread up into triangles and bake on a cookie sheet?)

Refried bean dip and baked tortilla chips
( season canned refried beans with taco seasonings)

no more then 6-8 grams of carbohydrates per serving
it should have at least 15 grams of protein per serving
and it should be one that can be mixed with 8oz. of fluids or less per serving.

***Now you know...if you DON'T get enough protein intake....your hair will fall out
         SO MAKE SURE YOU GET ENOUGH PROTEIN!!!







Here is part of an old post from "Emily" with some helpful info too!!

..."Yes, there are vitamins especially for bariatric patients. I ordered them from www.celebratevitamins.com . I ordered unflavored protein powder so I could mix it in broths, soups and crystal light. I got it from www.bestpricenutrition.com The reason I ordered the
Syntrax Nectar brand is because it isn't gritty and mixes up the best. I got really good prices. Shipping cost was a little high, but overall I think I got the best prices available...."
