I really thought I made a decent choice In my Proteins yesterday. I am 3.5 weeks out and eating soft foods. Everything was great until now, 3:30am the morning after. We had a ham yesterday and it was so soft and so good! I had about 2.5 ozs at lunch and another 1 oz at dinner. I also had one of those whey Protein Shots 42g Protein shots in a huge glass of Powerade zero. Here I sit with horrible gas running through my intestines, diarrhea and even some reflux even when I am on acid reducers. Not happy... :(

I know my dietician isn't a fan of those Protein Shots because they have a form of Protein that isn't as well absorbed (I think she said something about collagen? ). Maybe too much solid food too soon? I'm on all liquids until my 3 week follow up, then puréed....

Not sure how the ham was cooked... But if it was made with brown sugar, maybe it was too much for your tummy? Mine doesn't handle me eating too much sugar very well & it runs right through me... Just a thought. Hope you feel better!

Just the outside was glazed and I didn't eat it, only the unglazed insides. Just wish I knew if it was the ham or the Protein shot or both....

      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...

        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.
