Protein drinks....Yuck!!!

[amayes75 0]

I am 5 days post-op and I am having serious issues getting my Protein Drinks in. I was given Protein slams in the hospital that have 42 gramsof protein in them, but I just can't get them down. They are so nasty! I try to sip on them and I gag everytime. I also tried putting some Protein Powder in Jello but it doesn't really dissolve and just settles to that bottom, yuck again. Does anyone have any suggestions about getting any protein in? I'm only really eating jello and broths right now and I'm worried that I am going to start getting weak from the lack of protein. Why can someone make a protein Vitamin? !?!?

I tried a bunch of them, liked some of the Unjury and the nectar types. I have found that some of the others taste sooo nasty I can't stand them. Unjury's unflavored went into sf pudding just fine, and I couldn't taste it.

go to the food section of the forum and look for the thread where you can order samples. There are a lot of places to buy samples to try different things. . the sytrex nectar has a chocolate truffle is good and so is the cherry. I personally don't like the Ungury but I have never tried the unflavored. I used the GNC brand of unflavored and put it in crystal lite and other sf drinks like poweraide zero.
