hello all.. well.. I had surgery a year ago..lost 90lbs todate.. feel great but still having issues getting in protein.. Solid protein doesn't quite agree with me.. if I can get in an ounce of chicken i'm lucky.. seems like ground beef or anything ground is okay.. but i'm getting sick of it.. beans are good and cheese.. I can't do any type of protein shake..I've tried almost all out there and due to severe allegies I can't take them.. asthma, hives, etc.. can't do protein bars either.. or soy milk or anything with whey.. which leaves me little options for protein.. so I need ideas!!! IDEAS!!! HELP! so Ladies and Gentlemen.. give me so protein building ideas that I can use.. thanks

Hi, Can you do dairy, such as cottage cheese and yogurt? Let`s see, what about chili, deli meat rolled up with cheese? Homemade chicken salad. Peanut butter. And if you get really desperate, try babyfood meat chased with applesauce. I am 3 years out and I originally had a hard time with solids also. Probably for the first 2 1/2 yrs. I am guessing I only got in 30 to 40 gms a day. But I did fine. I`m not totally convinced we really need that much protein. I have heard a woman only needs about 50 gm anyway. I would do the best you can and not worry too much. Good Luck.

I don't do too well on the solid proteins either. It has to be extremely tender and when you are on the go and fixing something quick tender is not always an option. I do alot of lunchmeats with cheese, tuna and Peanut Butter. For some reason I'll have days where I can eat cottage cheese and other days it is my worst enemy. Anyone have days like that?

MARISOL, I DRINK MY PROTEIN. 3 /32 OZ. BOTTLE A DAY. ONE IN THE AM, ONE WHEN I WORK OUT AND FINAL ONE BEFORE I GO TO BED. IT STOP'S ME FROM EATING THE WRONG THINGS. I USE THE SYNTRAX NECTAR PROTIEN FUZZY NAVEL. NO CARB NO FAT MIX IT WITH CRYSTAL LIGHT. TASTE SO GOOD. I GOT ABOUT 4 DIFFRENT SAMPLE. I LIKED THE FUZZY NAVEL THE BEST. 23GR OF PROTEIN A SCOOP. I MIX 2 SCOOPS IN A 32OZ BOTTLE MIX WITH CRYSTAL. LIGHT. I GET ABOUT 66 OZ. OF PROTEIN. THAT'S WITH OUT THE FOOD. IT REALLY WORK. GLORIA MOLAKE -96
