LOL because lactose intolerant after surgery. I can have cheese, yogurt, and cottage cheese but MILK in anything sends me to the bathroom all day.

You know that's funny you should ask that. I am slightly intolerant (gassy and bathroom) when eating milk products. but after about two weeks post surgery I'm not bothered at all.. Maybe because I eat it in smaller amounts now??

Sorry to say I have had the opposite - after surgery I discovered I am very lactose intolerant. Annoying when trying to make my Protein Shakes. I am just hoping this will go away (2 mos. after surgery right now).

I think I'm in the same boat with you. I noticed some problems when consuming Protein Powder drinks prior to surgery but by the next day they were gone. I am post op 5 days and since having some Protein (a RTD shake and Unjury chicken soup) yesterday I am still a riot of gas! Most uncomfortable. I am considering an alternate protein choice, not as good as using whey isolate I know, but better than avoiding it altogether to avoid this feeling.

      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.

      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.
