Protein Shake = Diarrhea

Try Protein to go. Their protein concentrate you add to a small amount if water....28g each I have two a day....I also make Dr. smoothie shakes Bc their fruits and Ice..... I originally got a smoothie from ballys after my workout and ask what they made it out of. It was the dr smoothies so I've been using it since. I had the same reaction to the milk shakes...

I had issues with lactose post op...never had problems before. Better now - will be 7 weeks out tomorrow.

I also had diahrea every time I drank Protein. I tried every protein I could find. I bought chewable Fiber and my dr said it was fine. I helped. I am 2 mos out and am back to normal. I could hardly leave the house so I drank all my Protein Drinks in the morning and by 1:00 I was okay. I feel your misery!

Try a lactose free Protein Powder. My doctor gave a sample of a Protein liquid that comes in a tube, I can not remember the name, but I would split it in a dose of 3 with lots of water(I believe the tube is 42gr of protein). For some reason no matter how watery I made my Protein Shake it was just too think tasting to me. Also try lactose free milk. Some people, like myself, become lactose intolerant after the surgery.
