Nate74 45 Posted February 7, 2013 I've tried all Brands and types. Every single one makes me sick. At first i thought it was whey but i tried plant, soy, egg white. I was able to keep the egg white down one time but i had to mask it with a lot of fruit and juice and it still tore my stomach in knots. Has anyone else had problems with Protein and did you ever come up with a solution? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delena2/11 59 Posted February 7, 2013 Could it be lactose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nate74 45 Posted February 7, 2013 No i tried Lactose free and that's why i tried plant Protein with Water. But thanks for the response Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted February 7, 2013 Are you post-op? How far out? Have you tried premier Protein shakes? Also if you're out far enough you can add it to some warm coffee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristikay 60 Posted February 7, 2013 I don't use Protein Powder at all. I can get my Protein in with drinking skim milk and my food. I track it on MFP. I am supposed to get 50-60 grams a day. I do use carnation sugarfree instant Breakfast and that mixed with a cup of skim milk is 13 grams of protein.I seem to be the only one on here that goes to a doctor that does not recommend using protein powder.< em> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nate74 45 Posted February 7, 2013 Less of me I'm pretty much done trying different types as it hurts too much to throw it up and I'm almost 10 weeks out. KristiKay i will give that a try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoekids 120 Posted February 7, 2013 My NUT said when I get to the real food stage to eat food vs drinking shakes. She said wean yourself off of them asuch as possible. Mary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted February 7, 2013 Ah ok I didn't know where you were post op... I can't see profiles from my phone. Sorry I couldn't be of any help. Hope you start feeling better soon and find something that works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imabeskinny 31 Posted February 7, 2013 Have you tried Isopure? It is clear and fruit flavored. One bottle is 40 grams Protein. I mix a little into my crystal light throughout the day. I HATED Protein Shakes, they made me gag! Until I tried the vanilla Premier Protein mixed with coffee.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nate74 45 Posted February 7, 2013 unfortunately Isopure was the first one to make me sick but thanks for the post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted February 7, 2013 Nate, are you holding down everything else just not the Protein Drinks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LatteMadonna 25 Posted February 7, 2013 Premier Protein that comes already mixed is the only one that doesn't make me ill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLEEVER1 2 Posted February 7, 2013 Nate Did you try the Isopure shake or the clear drink? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGamer 406 Posted February 7, 2013 I'm also one who has trouble with shakes. For a while I was tolerating GNC's pre-mixed Total Lean, but after my recent bout with norovirus, I can't even handle that any more. They were tolerable, now they're cloyingly sweet and just leave me feeling icky. I had an Atkins vanilla shake tonight (I'm back on only liquids for a bit) and held that down okay.
