Crying since Monday but not now!!!

I went to the Dr. on Monday and I hace 0 protein in my  body and have a dangerous amounts of ketones in my pp. She said I have 0 fat cells that every move I make is burning muscle. And my heart is a muscle. I been having chest pain. She said I had to get in 50 grams of protein a day. I don't do shakes or bars. They have sugar or milk. ( puke,puke) I spent hours today in the grocery store to find something I can eat. Because the Dr. said at this point even a feeding tube want help. I let it go to long. Well anywho.... I found som stff I can eat with lots of protein. I did not know cottage cheese (SP) has protein in it. It has 50 grams in it. I love it with pineapple. I also got some tuna and salmon in little thin packs, it is loaded in protein. Got some broccli in cheese sauce. And some turkey deli turkey meat. That should fix me right up. I pray to my Loving God it does. So ladies please keep doing any kind of protein you can get in. I was one to never do protein,vitamins or exercise. I'm paying for it now. So please do what your doctor tells you. I don't know you but I care.

what kind of cottage cheese is that? Every type of cottage cheese i have ever seen has had roughly 13 to 24 g per serving, never 50- i want to know the brand and where because IF the label isnt a misprint I am gunna go get me some.

Thank you for the advice.  I will pray for you. Eat, eat, eat.

Breakstone's it is 5 servings and 12g of protein per serving. I can kill a carton in one day. It takes the whole day but there's my protein.  : )      And 80 calories per serving. I get the fat free. It's good. I get and cut up a fresh pineapple. It also has 20% calcium. lol I'm cheating. Looking at the carton. I'm not that smart to remember. lol

Looking at the carton is not cheating- it is showing that you are paying attention.

Ok I had read your original post wrong *yipes* I thought you had meant per serving and was like WHOA, lucky duck finding CC with that much protein per serving, I want to go get it. NOW I understand lol. Yea I like Breakstones but prefer HELLUVA Good myself. Now do not ask me the protein cuz I couldn't tell you.  I am getting tentative food lists ready for after I get bac on solids. Hubby is such a sweetie, he said he doesn't want me cooking anything until I am about a week to two weeks out because he wants me to do what I have to do to get back on par. I thought he was gunna suggest he would go and get him some fast food or some other junk. BUT he is a big fan of chef boyardee (lol) and Banquet microwave stuff. Yes it is crap but at least it has a lower fat yield than FF does. I will not fault the skinny lil **** for his vices. He is taking alot on himself just by being with me during this surgery- inevitably I am gunna be a grumpy bear- I can NOT stand pain really and when I am in pain watch out..... LOL

When did you have your surgery??? ITs very important to be eating a minimus of 60 grams of protein/day.

I do the cottage cheese occasionally. 
Chicken salad from ingles
I eat anything, just smaller quantaties

I would do the shakes just to get my protien up.  At GNC they have AMP chocolate protien shakes and they have a lot of protien in it.  Protien shots are not good for you but try to get my shakes
