Protein, my kingdom for good protein

So, I'm being banded on the 10th of March.

My protein of choice at this point is from NOW foods.

I'd like to hear other opinions about protein sources.

Unjury is good. I love the chocolate flavor. I also get lots of protein from vegan foods. I have eliminated hoof animals and am working on eliminating the beaks. I still love my fish and seafood, though. I just don't digest hoof animals like I did before. I don't like the way I feel and you really don't get much protein in 2 oz of animal compared with vegan foods.

Protein

Yeah, I'm moving towards the vegetarian life again. I've started purchasing free range and organic animal products. My spouse and daughter are committed carnivores, we've come to a reconciliation on this matter.

moooooooh.

Fish and cottage cheese are my proteins of choice. Both very good sources, and so yummy!

I don't understand the question...do you mean protein shakes? How far are you out from surgery? What is NOW foods. Sorry, maybe I'm dumb! If you want ideas just for regular old protein foods, I can list them all and would be happy to!

First of all.....PHINS UP from a fellow parrothead.....

NOW....tell me more about vegan foods.....
After the last beef debaucle, I'm seriously leaning towards cutting out "hoof" animals as well....I already stopped eating pork.....interested to hear about the protein side of it.

Harley Girl - i'm with you about the lastest pictures of those poor cows at the slaughterhouse. It made me cringe and ashamed of the human species.

I know that we are carnivores and, if I was hunting game and eating what I killed, I'd feel a whole lot better about eating meat. (Actually I'm a pretty good shot! and have my hunting license but I've never killed anything)

We humans have raised the whole raising and slaughtering of animals to an inhumane level. Pigs kept above those disgusting lagoons, cows spending their whole lives packed in pens. It's just not right. We need to have more respect for other animals I believe.

Once I have my surgery I'll be giving up most meat products. I can't reconcile the inhumane treatment of the animals. Cage free is worth the extra money.

Surgery on Monday March 3rd- yea! A new relationship with food I hope.

Sadie

Isopure

I'm also being banded March 10. The only liguid I have been having any luck with choking down is ISOPURE. I get it online from GNC. Each bottle has 40g of protein and some of the flavors taste pretty good. Good luck.

Try Medifast shakes- they are available on the web- I think they are good and I'll use them for my pre-surgery and post surgery liquid.

the Medifast diet is good except I got too hungrey with it. So I'll use Medifast with the band- hopefully that will be a good combination.

We'll see! banding on March 3rd.
