Muscle Milk And Nausea



Recommended Posts

I had a muscle milk today that was banana cream flavored. It made me very nauseas for at least 30 minutes. This is the second time I had tried one of these, same flavor. First one was about 5 weeks post op and I was fine with it. Now I really didn't like it much at 11 weeks. Has anyone else had this problem? I am a little bummed because banana creme used to be absolute favorite flavor pre-op, especially in yoplait light.

I hear that your taste buds change drastically. Sry

Tastes do change and over the course of my journey I must have switched "favorite" Proteins four or five times.

Muscle Milk was one I loved and absolutely cannot tolerate now. For me, I think the artificial sweeteners and flavors are what upset my system.

Try something new until you find something else you like. Buy samples or find a sample pack online until you find a few options that work. I found that sticking to basic flavors like chocolate, vanilla or coffee/cappuccino helped me enjoy a flavor much longer. It's easy to get tired of drinking the same shake every day.

It is funny that you mention banana as making you sick. I was given strawberry banana Jello in the hospital as well as strawberry banana yogurt. All i could taste was a sickening sweet banana taste. Disgusting...

I have heard taste can change dramatically

Only time I recall feeling sick post-op was after drinking a banana muscle milk two weeks ago. Who knows why, but I won't be going back for anymore of that.

      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.
