Protein ideas...
I had surgery (RNY) two months ago, and it is working wonderfully... Already lost 40 pounds and still going. Problem is, latelly I am constantly "dumping" and even some foods that first sit well with me will later on cause me to dump. I hate the protein shakes and I looking for ideas of "real protein food" to have, please post here if you have any suggestions.
This is what I ate when I was newly post op. I followed the protein first rule very closely my first year because that is when the weight comes off the quickest
~Yogurt.. when I was that early out, I only ate carb/sugar control yogurt because it's low in carb, calories and sugar. The PLAIN Greek yogurt has great nutritional facts too.
~ Cottage cheese
~ Thinly sliced deli lunch meat rolled w/ RF slice cheese
~ RF String cheese
~ Gordan's grilled fish.. in the freezer section. This is very soft and moist and goes down easy
~ Tuna salad made with FF mayo, lil relish, finely chopped egg
~ Egg beaters
~ Power crunch bar
~ FF refried beans topped with cheese & Taco bell refried beans
~ Finely ground, ground beef or turkey topped with RF cheese & salsa
~ RTD EAS Protein shakes
~ Atkins RTD protein shakes
~ Calorie countdown chocolate milk
~ Chicken did not sit well with me for a while until i tried the already cooked chicken strips in the bag. it is very moist and tender
Good luck and remember take advantage of your first year!!!!!!!!!
