Whatcha eating today? Friday, 10/21/2016
Hectic trying to scramble together many professional projects and prepare for my EGD next week. I took two days off for the endoscopy. Four chronic illnesses means I didn't want to gamble with it.
Meal #1: small LC ham sandwich
Meal #2: 1 cup high protein chicken soup
Meal #3: siggi yogurt
Meal #4: 6 shrimps, 1/4c mashed sweet potato.
Other: protein shake (depending on if I finish my food), 1 cheese stick, 1 small orange.
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

Ugh today was super busy at work so I didn't get to post my menu. It's boring anyway.
B - Unjury chicken soup flavored protein powder - Premier Protein shakes are hurting my stomach and I can't take it anymore! I'm ok if I sip it for an hour but then its hot and that is way too long anyway. Any suggestions?
L - Chicken thigh
S - Cheese stick
D - Who knows! It's Friday night!! ...but protein forward of course.

I am not sure, but I recall that Premier shakes aren't 100% whey protein isolate, whereas Unjury is. Whey protein isolate is easier to digest than other kinds of protein, and hydrolyzed protein is the easiest of all. Hydrolyzed protein often has a bitterness to it, though.

I don't know about your brand shakes. But I prefer hot liquids to cold, so I used to add protein powder (mixed with cold water into a paste) in my coffee. With some Splenda and sf coffee syrup (hazelnut)
i might suggest a yeti cup with ice to keep your drink cold. I know there is a cheaper brand than yeti, but I can't remember what it is?.. Oz ark or something..?

My NUT wants me close to 100 grams of protein since I am 5'11 and 200 lbs overweight. I'm 5 weeks out from being sleeved.
