Protein packed breakfast, not for the squeemish!!!
So, hello, I am not a newbie, kinda an oldie. Been really busy so not hanging in too much.
So I have been trying to up my protein, I have stopped tracking and just started making much better choices. So todays breakfast
protein Coffee (reg coffee with 1 scoop of unjury vanilla, 2 oz 1% milk)
3 slices of bacon
3/4 c of chobani plain yogurt with sf raspberry torani syrup
a whopping 54 grams of protein consumed over an hour or so, maybe 2 hours, i actually just finished the coffee.
So for those having a hard time getting in the protein. It can be done.
have a fabulous day. If you want ideas on how to sneak in protein, hit me up. I am a pro at it now.
PS 20g protein HALF sandwich
1 slice Arnolds or other WHOLE GRAIN bread 5 grams protein
1 slice of cheese 5-7 g protein
2 slices of turkey 8-10 g protein
This is a great snack or lunch even.
If you are able to consume it.
I am sure I WILL CATCH SOME FLACK FROM SOME BUT TO EACH HIS OWN. I am just offerring what works for me.

Um...good.
I just remember when I would have made that statement. Remember, the goal is not to eat a quarter cup your entire life. The goal is to eat a reasonable amount of food (the amount a fit and healthy eater would consume probably). That's WAY more than the average new post-op eats, hence the freak outs. But really...we are SUPPOSED to able to eat more over time. You just gotta chew the right thing. ;)
You are doing just fine. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Nik, I just did not want to give wrong information. I eat pretty good. I guess we all remember when we could eat enough for four and be looking for something else. I don't ever want to go back to where I came from. I find that a half of sammy and 10 chips and a 4 oz drink are usually enough for me. Protein is my friend. When I am packing it in, I lose. If not and I am carbing it up, I don't lose.
Thanks,
Thanks,
