Still Cant Get Protein



Recommended Posts

I couldn't do the shakes either. I found Protein Shots that have 26g of Protein in the 2.9oz shot. They had orange flavor and fruit punch. I preferred the fruit punch. I found them at my grocery store in the section with the Ensure. Good luck.

When you can eat, try Protein bars. But please wait till you are cleared by your doctor.

can't do the shakes I barely get my liquid in what am I gonna do? scared of dehydration more afraid of losing my hair.

hi there

checked your profile, don't know how far you are post-op.

if you are very new to the sleeve, Protein is not as important as liquids, Water, broth, SF popsicles -

push the drinking

i was dehydrated once, couldn't keep meds down, vomitted all that good stuff - had to go to hospital for an IV to get me hydrated again

protein will be added soon enough, now getting all your liquids in

can't emphasize enough - just keep on drinking

as far as loosing hair - i would rather be bald then ever be fat/overweight again

good luck

Tried again and can't do the shakes I barely get my liquid in what am I gonna do? I see the dr. Next week scared of dehydration but' date=' more afraid of losing my hair.[/quote']

I don't know how to put this nicely so you're just gonna have to be mad at me.

Drink your Water. Don't even try Protein till you can get your Water in. Chances are you ARE going to experience Hair loss regardless, you are not getting enough Protein to make a difference now anyhow.

Also when you end up hospitalized due to dehydration they aren't going to pump you full of protein so you are gonna have a protein deficiency anyhow.

Additionally, you do know that the hair loss is not permanent right? And it tends to be more of a thinning than a "balding" loss.

I understand completely where you are coming from, I am one of he most self absorbed people you will ever meet. Vanity can be a M-Fer but we can't allow vanity to overcome our sense of self preservation.

Hope you don't stay mad at me too long.

Also, Unjury has an unflavored protien when your ready for food. You can add it to anything and it has no taste at all. I just open a package and sprinkle it on as much as I can. When you get to soft foods it goes great in applesauce. I am 4 months out, and have lost 70 lbs. I have always had very long hair. I had to cut it short 2 weeks ago. But it WILL come back!!!!

That is true, but it's sip sip sip!. My Dr told me up until 4 weeks dont worry about getting all the protien in, its more important to stay hydraded. You will get there...hang in

Please look at the ingredients, if it says collagen or Gelatin it's garbage and that's exactly where they should go.

If it truly a whey protein shot I'd be happy to take them off your hands.

It says whey Protein, casein protein isolate, complete protein matrix and other ingredients that don't seem as important

It just says Whey Protein and I have 9 left. They were $3 each and I can ship them flat rate priority for about $5.75... So $32.75 and they are yours.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
