how Im getting protein
the hubby told me the other day that he had found a 10g milk made by Hood, and brought it home for me. 10 g per cup, and I use 11/2 cups mixed with a sf carnation instant breakfast. thats 20 g of protein. Because I am still struggling with the protein powders, I use this 2-3 times a day plus add to it with "meals" Im getting about 65 daily now. Maybe need a little more. But for those of us who struggle with the taste and cost of protein shakes, this works really well.
thats how i did it plus i put half a banana in it too , thats how i lived for 3 months i had 3 strictures so seemed like i was in the land of puree forever , i also used too do cream of tomatoe soup mixed with milk and then when i was out more i add cheese too too pack a punch it was like 16 grams for one meal , some have too watch they dont dump on the tomatoe though , i never did
the tomato soup seems to be THE good thing for me, it is very soothing and comforting. The Hood calorie countdown stuff is awesome. The pnly trouble I have had so far was trying to push capacity to make the drinks an even 20 Gs. I went to 11/2 cups of milk (15 g) and my stomach can DRINK it, I am just miserable after. Too full and gurgly. I am surprised I can even do a cup and a half, plus the carnation, Im guessing that is just liquids and that I wont be able to do near as much solids. Going just by the liquid volume I can manage, it seems my pouch is a little bigger than I expected. Guess solids will be the real test, though.
PS cheese? what is this thing you speak of?
