Syntrax Nectar is my favorite and the one I use the most for Protein Drinks. They have lots of great flavors that mix well with Water, any type of milk, coffee, and juice. I buy mine mostly on Amazon, but my doctor has a good deal on their sample packs for travel.

All prepared whey or whey isolate Protein shakes make me sick. I can handle soy Protein in moderation but if I drink to many of those they also make me sick. Another sleever on here gave me the suggestion of making my own shakes which is what I do most of the time. Usually soy or almond milk with white Beans and bananas and coconut extract. Sometimes I will just do soy or almond milk with fruit and ice, but it's not very high in protein.

You may be developing lactose intolerance so you can try taking something like lactaid before you drink your shakes to see if it helps. *Just don't buy the offbrand, it doesn't work as well (or doesn't for me)

Yes, change your shake, then. Or mix with Water instead of milk. Or tea, or soy milk, or coconut milk, or coffee, or juice. I've done all of the above.

If your shake has lactose you might have lactose intolerance. And if you're mixing them with milk, and intolerant, well, it would stand to reason that you'd have some issues.

Try mixing your shake with a different liquid. Still sick? Try a different shake. Keep at it until you find something that works. Some people do like the bullets but I've also seen references to studies that they don't absorb as well.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
