Protien Balls





This is a recipe I found awhile back for protein balls. I really enjoyed them and I have to say I am not a big fan of peanut butter. I also found that my kids enjoyed them....
1 cup of old fashioned oatmeal, not instant
1 cup of protein I used GNC 100% whey caramel chocolate
1 cup of peanut butter
a little sugar free syrup
a few packages of splenda for taste
Melt the peanut butter in the microwave, stir in the oats and protein. Add a little syrup to help with the moisture. I have made them without the syrup they are a little dry....
Roll into balls and store in airtight container
I have never broke down the % of protein and all per ball...sorry.

Protein ball - are hand made, I don't know of any you can buy! Something like 1 C oatmeal, 1 C peanutbutter, 1 C chocolate protein powder... the real ingredients are listed a couple of pages back on this board.
The BEST kind of ice cream to eat is NONE!!! ROFL (well you asked) no really, I buy the no sugar added kind myself, although I don't buy it but once every couple of months or so.
Fruit'n yogurt parfait!! YIKES, I couldn't eat one of those.
Calories: 160 carbs: 31 SUGAR: 21grams!!! Nope, I'd be in the bathroom dumping with that one.
since I had my rny I have had the McD's yogurt parfeit ONCE and I dumped like a truck. the yogurt has a lot of added sugar. I m not a terribly sensitve dumper either. but, I was horribly sick. If I want something similar I make it myslef with no sugar added yogurt and fresh fruit and Kashi crunch cereal or all bran buds. and tolerate that just fine.
