[BlueOctoberGirl 111]

Hi All,

I was sleeved on the 5th. I can not get my Protein in. The shakes and the Isopure make me vomit. I dont know what to do. I am exhausted...Please give me some ideas. I was in the emergency room yesterday getting fluids. I can only get in hot tea and Water.

Thanks so much!!!

You'll be on mushies soon so don't worry until then - a lot of people struggle in the early days. You'll then be able to have scrambled egg and yogurt (Greek yogurt has double the Protein of standard yogurt), so that should help. You'll probably be OK with some fish too.

I actually ended up having the SAME problem. I spent SO much money on different items but everything made me gag at just the thought of it. I finally found that Muscle Milk is actually pretty good! It doesn't have a chalky taste at all. I buy the Light, it's about 8 oz, 100 calories, and has 15 g of Protein. I get mine from Walmart. They sell a pack of 4 for about 5 or 6 dollars. Get a pack and try those. THey have a very similar taste to a Yoo Hoo. Good luck!!

Hay kido hang in there. I ws sleved 2 months ago and I STILL can't get in all my liquids let alone my Protein. My Dr. said do not wory about the protein for now but try to get the liquids down. I was never much of a drinker so it is even harder for me. I do the best I can. You can do this. I have not found ANY Protein drinks that I like. And I have tried them ALL. It will come in time just keep the liquids going. You are gona do GREAT. Vicki

Right now, the most important thing is liquid. If it has Protein, great. If not, don't overly worry about it. Are you allowed milk? If so, you might want to try that - it will give you liquids, Protein, and some nurishment.

I also could not tolerate Protein shakes. I gagged and decided I would just rather die than have another. I did find that I could tolerate powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup. You have to order it on-line, but it may help you (depending on how long your liquid phase it).

Good luck - just try to remember that this too shall pass.

I totally know what you are going through! My tastes have changed since getting my sleeve and so many things make me gag. I have tried dozens of Protein drinks and there is only 1 that I can drink and it doesn't give you a after taste or anything.

It's called "Lean Body" and you can get it at GNC or Vitamin Shoppe. It's 17 oz and has 40 grams of Protein. Takes me 3 hours to go through one and doesn't have a after taste. I drink the chocolate Ice Cream.

Also, fat-free milk has 8g of protein in each glass.

Hope this helps and good luck! - Tiffany

Wegman's Supermarket sells this Protein shot called "Proasis." It has ONLy 2.9 oz in the tube and has 25 GRAMS of Protein. What I did the first week was mix 2 oz if diet/decaf iced tea or lemonade with 1 oz at a time. They have flavors like grapes, strawberry, rasberry. I am telling you they are NOT BAD at all. They cost $2.49 per shot. You can beat the protein!!

Good Luck!!!

If you can get in some hot tea how does broth make you feel? I did not experience problems with liquids just the taste of Isopure. Everyone advised me here to focus on getting fluids in and that's what I did, it will get better you have to keep trying. Have you tried Crystal Light? I have 20 flavors here and I just bought the Kellog drink mix with 5mg of Protein, it tastes like strawberry and Kiwi. Whatever you do don't allow yourself to become dehydrated your body has gone through so much trauma already. Another thing is SF popsicles a lot people on the board recommended them though its not my favorite thing in your case it might help you up those fluids. Good luck and let us know how you are doing.

I put my Protein Drinks in the freezer and get them really cold and that helps alot, these are the only things I drink cold everything else is at room tempeture, also drinking through a straw might help some.

Good luck

Try carnation sugar free instant Breakfast. It doesn't have as much Protein but is the most palatable drink I've found that has over 10g protein, and it's in pretty much any grocery store. If you like chocolate milk I think you will like it. I also really like kelloggs protein Water. It has 5 g protein per 16 oz and tastes good, like crystal light. I hope these help!
