RE: what is protein coffee?

[Guest guest]

Its coffee with protein powder added. I take a scoop of protein powder, add

enough soy milk to turn it into a paste, then add my coffee. It's a gastric

bypass trick. Most of us do this because pouches are really grumpy in the

morning but we have to get our protein in. I do it every morning. I also

have a collection of sugar free syrups to add as well. I have the whole

coffee barista thing going on so I don't get bored with it.

That's what I do, too! After my first cup of sanity with vanilla protein powder,

I'll get solid food going into the gut. I've got a failed Fobi gastric pouch

that caused more problems than I can list. Generally, add " itis " to everything

about the GI system, and other amusements.

 

Have you ever tried sprinkling protein powder over plain Cheerios and munching

it through the day as a crunchy snack food? I love it and it gives me a serving

of protein as well as fiber.

So nice to see another bypass patient. I had the Fobi as well. I didn't

have any problems. There are just some foods that don't sit well with me or

easily get stuck. I also tend to have some issues with reactive

hypoglycemia. Im sorry you've had so much trouble. That's no fun at all.

 

 

 

I haven't tried the cheerios trick. Hmmm. I think I will. Thanks for the

tip!!!
