Types of Protein Drinks



Recommended Posts

Is anyone out there allergic to milk? I have been drinking the whey Protein Drinks and they upset my stomach and make me very gassy. Is it because of the whey? Is there another drink out there that tastes good? I am having surgery on 6/6 and am trying to get prepared for my 10 day preop diet. Thanks for any suggestions.

muscle milk light is pretty good and doesn't contain any milk.

But isn't "whey" milk based?

Muscle Milk Light is not Whey. It is a Protein based substitute for a meal, or as a snack.< /p>

Go to ebay and type in Muscle Milk, and the light will come up"that's what you want.

In the white jugs that they sell, you will find a seller that sells a jug for $5.99. THAT'S CHEAP !

She sells strawberry Milkshake flavor, and sometimes has other flavors. It's a good deal.

Order yourself a jug for that price, and try it. For that price you can't go wrong.

Just look for the $5.99 price, and you can't miss it.

Good Luck, Shirley

I have used Muscle Milk Light and Isopure from GNC (not the fruit flavors) mixed with either Soy Milk or Almond Milk...neither of them are whey based (they are lactose free) which should help with your stomach issues...

If it is lactose that bothers you, then the ready to drink Oh Yeah is wonderful. I am majorly dairy/lactose intolerant with the bloating, pain and gas and have no problems with the Oh yeah. I make my own yogurt from Lactaid milk.

Good luck,

Mimi

If you are Lactose Intolerant? As I am. The Muscle Milk Light powder form that I wrote you about on ebay is what I drink.

I can't stomach Milk at all.

Give it a shot.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
