    Protein powder

    I'm 3weeks sleeved I been having a hard time with protein shakes too they know me well at GNC I was on whey protein before surgery buy after I could take any flavors of it I mixed it with water, silk milk and still couldn't drink my NUT told me to try something else so I tried isopure powder and that didn't work so I been trying to consume my protein in every meal but 70g is hard when you can't eat much. So today I went back to gnc and the guy knew what to do even though I had a list he gave me an already mix isopure drink cold 40g per bottle and I was in heaven it taste so good I have brought it up yet thank god... hope this help!

    AVOCADO?

    I only see my Nut when I go to see my doctor appt that's it
  3. Please explain how you hide it because I been trying everyday and I'm not doing to well with I guest cause I know it's there. I use the 100% whey before I had surgery and it was done but after no good so my Nut had me tried isopure and this is the nastiest I every tasted and I brought right back up so now I'm trying to work in the whey with everything and everything I eat I'm adding protein to it

    Liquid Phase

    I just got off the liquid stage about 6 days ago and I was told no creamy soups because you may font be able to hold it you should do sugar free jello, popsicle, broth, all drinks like crystal light,diet snappers, Hawaiian punch sugar free packets but you should check your Nut.

    how to get the protein that is needed

    Yes I'm on pureeds but I'm still on having a hard time with this I just brought the other half of the mix up I can't deal with throwing up
  12. I had my surgery on may 28 th I was a little sick for the first two days then finally I was put on liquids when I was discharged my doctor told me to remember to take the protein shakes (100 whey protein) however the shake couldn't take me...lol I could keep them down on my first visit I spoke to a nutritionist and she had me change the brand to isopure and I just had some one Friday and it came right back up so I phone in and told her what else could I do so I came up with this plan 1 cup of plan Greek yogurt, 2 scoops of the powder, 2 pack of splendid, 2tsp of vanilla extract and pinch of cinnamon use the mixer and blend it, very tasty that gives me 68g of protein the rest I get from my foods we need a total of 70g
