I am not able to eat more the 2 maybe 3 bites of food before I'm full for hours and I am not able to hold down meats an I'm about 2 months out from surgery I am drinking protein powder in my drinks but I need way more protein then that can give me ,I need creative ways to get more protein in me, can anyone please help! I'm open to all and any suggestions
 
Greek yogurt, yasso frozen yogurt bars, cottage cheese, fair life milk, even a decaf skinny vanilla latte from Starbucks has quite a lot of protein. I don’t really eat much meat, but I get my required protein in one way or another. I don’t like protein shakes, but a caramel premier protein mixed with cold brew coffee is good and has 30g protein!
