Getting Enough Protein...

 Just wondering if people can post some foods / sample meals (e.g., breakfast, lunch, dinner) that you enjoy / tolerate in order to get in all your protein for the day.  I am only a couple of weeks out and want to start thinking of things / planning.  Your suggestions are welcome!  I need the advice!  Thanks!

I already used the WLS cookbook a lot - and I do find the recipes easy and handy (since you right away have all the info) - especially for the beginning - I am also a newby - now 5 weeks out. I used the salmon - meat balls - meat loaf - hummus -/  all very easy to freeze in ready portions ( Use ice cube trays ) .  I also freeze my veggies and sweet potato. And for a treat I made greek yoghourt with cristal light flavor and artificial sweetners - and also did freeze them. 

check the "what are you doing/eating today" thread, that will give you some good tips and pointers and suggestions and stuff.

If you need the .pdf for the WLS cookbook for dummies...I have it and will email it to you.

Just PM me your email :) 

It has great suggestions !

THat early out I survived on protein shakes, porridge with protein powder in it, greek yogurt with protein powder in it etc

 This is a huge fear with me as well I sent a message to you asking that you send me the file. I hope you do not mind.  Also asked and if you could tell me which protein powder you used and where to get thanks so much.

 I buy from GNC a powder called Promasil, vanilla soft serve and chocolate.  It dissolves very well and tastes good.  If you don't agree, nice thing about GNC is they'll take it back.  

I use the vanilla powder in a home made smoothie, 1/2 cup 0%plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk, 1/2 banana or 1/2 cup berries of your choice, one scoop powder, blend and enjoy.  You get protein from powder, soy milk and Greek yogurt.  

I use the chocolate in 3/4 cup water or soy milk with about 8 ice cubes and blend until smoothie texture.  Enjoy!  Quick, cheap, no fuss, no muss!

I recommend you get used to documenting your food in a plan on myfitnesspal.com or fitbit.com or wherever you find best.  I use myfitnesspal.com cause it lets my smart phone scan bar codes of foods and records nutrient list per serving automatically!  If you plan a few days in advance eating with a plan is much easier than not.  And like Mon said, everyday there's a post here about what people are eating/doing to give ideas.  Enjoy your ride!    I hope that helps a little!

 I know it helped me thanks so much!

I love your name!  It was my favorite Aunt's name and of course Wall E is in my top five animated movies of all time!  Now I can say EVIE and you can answer back WallE?  No huh!  Oh well.  Glad I helped.
