4 days out... protein's are hard to get in...
I used Beneproten. It is unflavored. 1 scoop is about 2 tablespoons of powder. It is 25 calories and 6 grams of protein. I added that to everything.
I would do one water 24 oz bottle of water, mix two scoops of protien powder into it and 1 crystal light packet. I would drink that between breakfast and lunch and then do the same after lunch, between lunch and supper.
This gave me basically 24 grams of protein. The rest I got with my foods.
I was given sweveral cases of this prior to my surgery, so that is why I chose this brand. I am now two years out and use a Whey protien powder I get from Cotsco. It is a vanilla flavor, so I mix it with milk and some berries and make a nice "shake" for about 28 grams of protein. I also will mix it with 1 cup of OJ. This makes a shake that tastes like a cream cycle.
