4 those who get in 100g's of protein daily

I am only two weeks out, so I am still on full and clear liquids.

I use EAS Whey Protein powder. I drink two 8oz. shakes daily. Each one has 35g of protein (including 8g from 8oz fatfree milk). Plus, I usually have either 4oz of soupy Cream of Wheat or 4oz. of sugar free yogurt. Each has 5-8g of protein.

I found 4EverFit Fruit Blast Whey Protein, at the The Vitamin Shoppe it has 23g of protein per scoop. I mix that with my 64oz water and drintk 2 of those a day. Gives me my water and 46g of protein at once.  Add my protein from my meals and I get 80 - 100g a day.  Will have an atkins protein (or similar) if I need to as well.

That protein shot is not the right type of protein. It is collogen which does not contain amino acids. useless .... kind of like pork rhines.

Sorry, but you are only getting 75g because the protein "shot" does not have all the amino acids necessary for your body to absorb the protein... so that is nothing but empty calories.

Look here for protein amounts in food.www.highproteinfoods.net/

I eat lots of fish, beef, buffalo/bison (lower in fat than beef), ground turkey, chicken etc.

for example if it's a day I know I'm going to be out and running all day doing errands...

protein coffee (15g) to wake me up
Milk - 11g
Cottage cheese with fruit (usually pineapple) - 12 - 14g
Chicken - 16g
Milk - 11g
Fish - 26g
Then a high protein snack before bed.

On a day I might stay at home:

coffee (with out the protein)
egg and liver - 30g protein
Milk - 11g
Ham - 15g
cottage cheese - 12g
lamb - 21g
Fish - 15g - 20g (smoked salmon, maybe a salmon dip with breadsticks (hard bread - 5g protein)

Granted that's not everyday but an example and I only listed the high protein stuff, I didn't include any extra's like veggies/fruits/grains etc. so that would add more depending on what I was eating.


ETA: Omeletes in the morning with cheese, ham, onion, peppers, etc. is great as well. Love them! and lots of protein from the eggs, cheese and ham!

What kind of milk are you drinking that has 11g of protein? Or are you just drinking a serving and a half?

1 cup of 2% milk is 10g (nutritiondata.self.com/facts/dairy-and-egg-products/73/2). I drink a little more than that at a time however. I love a tall glass of cold milk. MMMM.

I found ESM Myoplex - chocolate fudge at Walmart. 43 g Protein. I love it.
