Protein shakes.... and unflavored powder
Hey there, hoping someone cm help me find a good place to but unflavored protein powder to add to soups and stuff... I had surgery Monday and the patient shake I got really does not taste good and I know I'm not yet getting enough protein.
Also.. what Di you guys eat for breakfast at this stage? Currently it's a protein drink for me.
Try Bulk Barn. They have an unflavored protein powder, and you can just buy a little to see if you like it. There are some that like the shakes from there (as I said, you can check it out and only buy a small amount to try). A lot of people like the Premier Protein shakes from Costco. I have milk issues, so I don't drink most shakes.
As for breakfast, if you are on the liquid stage, you can do oatmeal. I'd make it thin though. The recipe I follow is 1/3 c quick oats, 1 c water and microwave for 99 seconds. I'll also add vanilla extract, low fat coffeemate (due to milk issues) and a bit of sweetner. You probably won't be eating the whole recipe yet. I still make it this way. You could also have yogurt.

Thought of yogurt, not really a fan of it most days. might try plain oatmeal... I have those sugar free calorie free syrups.. wondering if those would be okay in there.
Unfortunately I don't live anywhere near a Costco :(
And awesome idea for the bulk barn!! I never thought of there. A friend down south when I stopped in on my way for surgery showed me some cookies and cream protein shake a. .. that I have not seen anywhere else... I haven't tried it yet... might be good to keep as a treat shake. Lol.
