Never Knew
You know I have been on this website forever but up until recently I didn't even realize there was a Kentucky Message Board. I know crazy right. Right now I am struggling with getting in the protein but my surgeon said I need to drink atleast one a day. But my question is if I mix a scoop in yogurt is that the same thing?? I dont really care for drink a shake but I mixed the powder in Breyers Light Strawberry yogurt and added extra with a couple of more strawberries chopped up. I also found this granola cereal that is 3grams of sugar called BareNaked Fit and so I mix that in. So do you think that would be the same as drink a shake???
Hi Angie,
I know exactly where you are coming from while on the liquid and pureed portion of the diet for the band i had a horrible time getting the protein powder down. i tried everything mixing it in yogurt reduced calorie ice cream, and carnation instant breakfast I just couldn' stomache it it made me gag. So I contacted the nutrtionist at my surgeons office and she told me that if I ate 4oz. of low fat cottage cheese that would give me 11 grams of protein(so I ened up eatin it three times aday) and din't have any more problems i would contact you surgeons nutritionist and ask for some other suggestions.
Good luck
Wendy

good to see you my friend...
I would say any way you can get it in is fine...just get it in. Try CarbMaster yogurt, low cal and low carbs- it is from Kroger.
But, remember to think in terms of carbs from yogurt, carbs from cereal, and carbs from protein powder and then that from fruit...they all have to be added and they may cause you do dump from that high a suger level. But you know your tollerance and how much you can do; maybe it is fine for you.
I think if you can tollerate it in anything than eat it....protein is better than no protein, right? And you gave me an idea....in yogurt. I may try that tomorrow as I eat yogurt daily for b'fast. Thanks Angie
how are you doing?

If it goes in your mouth it counts. I use to buy the unflavored Unjury and put it in chili, soup and what ever I fixed. Some things it mixed in better than others. I would definitely mix it in yogurt. I use the Carbmaster from Kroger's as well. Low in carbs and sugar. I mix in Kashi Go Lean High Protein cereal, 2 Tbls. flax seed meal, and either a small container of no sugar added apple sauce or blueberries. It's a great breakfast. Had it this morning.

I'm so glad to hear that it counts and it really isnt too bad tasting. I usually have a protein bar for breakfast and then have my yogurt mixture for lunch then for dinner i either eat fish or chicken to get the rest of my protein. I am hoping this will help with my hair loss and my slowing weight loss. I just started getting all of my protein in so ladies keep your fingers crossed!

Hi again
UGH I tried it with a supposed unflavored protein I had at home...oh, my gosh-YUCK!!!
Ok, so I need to go and get some whey fortress in vanilla.
I tried it in red raspberry yo and it was a no go!
I am going to try it with the wehy fortress. Your idea was light a light going off in my head...why had I not been doing that from the beginning of yogurt for b'fast????
good luck
