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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
