quite curious about protein (what are you eating to get it all in)

Thanks Jo0710

it is good to know i am not alone. i am generally very good with weighing and measuring

thank you so much

I am a grand total of NINE days out so my advice may not help but here goes. First off I had a very rough time finding shakes I liked so I finally started using Syntrax from the States so it makes it easier to drink an entire shake made with 8-10 ozs of 2% milk so that adds 13.5 gms over the course of a day making the shake a winner at 365 gms total. I make my jello the regular way but add in .75 of a cup of non fat greek yogurt and so each .25 of a cup has about 3-4 gms of protein. I also make my puddings with a Syntrax shake and milk so that each serving of a .25 cup has 5 gms of protein. I am a big girl now and have permission to start edging into soft foods so I add 2 ozes of chicken puree to any soup or stewish thing I am having for a meal which is another 12 gms of protein.

Today I had cream of wheat with stevia and greek yogurt for B. (prob not again because I have decided CofW and I dont get along. I had one of the little puddings with breakfast and half a twelve oz cappuccino shake made with 2% milk for morning snack and I will fini**** this afternoon.

For lunch I am having a hard boiled egg with some avocado mashed in and a lite laughing cow piece(OMG this is the best meal I have had for ages)

Dinner will be 1/3 of a Luvo chicken kale and white bean chowder partially pureed with 2 oz of chicken and thinned with no salt chicken broth so it isnt stodgey and gluey. (this is pretty fancy for me since I can guarantee most of the time it will be lentil or minestrone soup from PC Blue Label)

I will have a decaf tea later with milk in it which I never did before since I liked it black but to cram in a few more grams of protein I will learn to love it! I know it's long but I feel for you. My plan is to add more things like hummous and cottage cheese once my tum tum tummy is a little less grum grum grumbly!

Totals : protein 62, carbs 27, fibre 4, sugars 7, fat 19, sod 849 calories 484

EDIT shake should read at 36 gms of protein

LOL Good job RosieBelly!

sounds like you are really getting your protein in. and even at this stage. well done.

i am trying some egg. i like eggs they are not always fond of me unfortunatley but i am going to try.

as i said for me soft cheese is a current no go. (what goes down must unfortunately come up)

i am hoping my mom can make me some lentil soup. hers is the best. i never get it quite right. it doenst help that she wings it. never uses a recipe. just throws in whatever is old in the fridge.

mums what can we do with them.

Thanks!
