After trying yet another protein shake sample (Jay Robb's) and not feeling the love, (with quite the assortment of canisters on my counter), I started searching "hate protein shakes" on OH. And lo and behold, I seem to have found the answer to all our hopes and dreams: a tremendous resource of protein recipes in the form of shakes, hot drinks, desserts, etc. I'm so excited, I want to cry. Thank you, Cleopatra_Nik!

She does have some good ones! :)

In case you have any Jay Robb's left, I like a few of the flavors mixed with Crystal Light. Just a suggestion if you want to try to use up something you already have. Good luck! Finding a protein shake you enjoy can be quite tricky!

I love Bariatric Foodie and EggFace, they are both on my Favorites Bar. Have you all seen Bariatric TV? - those two are a hoot and they come up with some interesting recipes too.

I have not looked at the Eggface site. I have a lot of reading to do!

Thank you so much. Comments like that are exactly why I keep the blog going,

I was just out from surgery I also had a really hard time with protein. That's what got me started playing with my food. And a few years later here we are still doing it!

Thanks for this post it really made my day.

Ditto to above sentiments...Bariatric Foodie and Eggface are like the bible of post-wls cooking. I have found that I can't go wrong with any of their recipes! Those two sites alone have single handedly taught me how to cook for the first time in my life...and now, I can actually adjust recipes onsite to suit my tastes...something I could never do before and the sign of a true cook, IMO.

I share in thanking these two incredible pioneers in bariatric cooking!

Enjoy!

nik - Thank you so much for your blog! My 1/4 surgery date got cancelled to to my thyroid levels being way off. I am faithfully taking them and will retest in a month and hope they are good enough to reschedule. In the meantime, I have been reading several blogs and the boards for all sorts of good ideas when I need them.
