Protein Shakes

  The Inspiration! (Recipe courtesy of former Bariatric Foodie co-writer Jen Stockinger.) I’ve seen lots of newer post-ops asking about protein shake recipes on OH lately, so this morning I decided to share a new shake recipe instead of the super secret meatloaf.

~~by Nikki Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m the one person in the whole RNY universe who never tried Pam’s Protein Chai Tea. That is, until recently. I like chai just fine.

~~posted by Jen So usually I eat a salad with some protein on top for lunch or dinner, but one of my favorite “go to” snacks is veggie sticks with Greek Yogurt Ranch dip.  Let’s face it, you can only eat so much meat and cheese before you start craving “vegabulls”.  Yesterday afternoon I made myself the little crudite snack …

~by Nikki So, as many of you know, because I have a HUGE mouth, I have been going through some things lately. The only thing that amazes me more than how much “stuff” life can throw at you is how generous people can be in response. Folks learned I needed protein powder and I got boxes and boxes of the …
