I'm late posting this but I don't figure its going to get much traffic anyway. I ate (or didn't eat) terribly yesterday.  I wasn't even close on the protein.  I had a latte, an egg, and two pieces of bacon.  That's it.  Shame on me.  I also missed my iron and didn't get enough water in - and threw away my lunch.  Do not ever follow my example.  Today hasn't been much better - I am working on some milk and coffee.  I had a fiber one bar for breakfast, a few bites of Thai for lunch (basically all veggies) and 3 prunes.  I simply have no appetite,  but I will definitely supplement protein today because if I let it slide 2 days in a row I will be a bad bad bad bad bad bad bad girl.  Dinner - not sure, maybe chili, it sounds sort of good.  Honestly, its like right after surgery - the only things that taste truly good are fruits and veggies.  I may have to go back to living on avocado, peanut butter, and milk for a few days.  What about you?  What are you eating today?

It took all day but I got a protein shake down today.  23 grams of protein!  I know it is no where near where it needs to be, but it is a start.  I also have about two tablespoons of greek yogurt.  Solids just feel soooo weird in my pouch.  It does take some getting used to.  And of course - water, water, water!

Mootopia is a milk put out by a Texas grocery store chain - it has almost double the protein of regular milk, is lactose free, and has 40% more calcium.  Unfortunately its not nationwide. Greek yogurt is available nationwide - its a thicker creamier yogurt that is higher in protein than regular yogurt.  Its definitely popular among RNY patients, and it has a good amount of protein in it definitely.  A lot of people like it with fruit and some sugar free syrup or preserves.  I actually prefer to use it in a savory manner - in place of sour cream, or in tzatziki sauce for grilled chicken (cucumber, oregano, salt, pepper, lemon juice) Good luck!
