My protein shakes are too frothy

[vegasneon 181]

I'm using the same Protein powder as before surgery and now my shakes are coming out too frothy and I can't drink them. They give me too much painful gas now. I'm 9 days after surgery. I used to mainly use soy milk but sometimes used fat free milk. Since my surgery I have only been using fat free milk. Could that be the problem? I've. Tried less crushed ice, more crushed ice, I don't know what else to try. I swear they were not frothy before I had surgery but maybe I never noticed?

if it weren't for RTD I don't know what I would do.

Thanks for any suggestions.

They were frothy before, too. I have the same problem. I can no longer blender mine and then drink. If I do, I have to let it sit in the fridge for an hour, scrape off the foam and then consume. Ugh.

Oh thanks! I crave my old one and it doesn't seem like I can stir it good enough or even shake it with the metal blender ball. Guess I will have to make them all an hour beforehand!

Yep that's what I do let it sit for about an hour then sip it for another 2hrs!

I have yet to do this out of laziness but when my kids were infants we would put a drop of gas drops in their bottle. It would dissolve all of the bubbles. A thought....

Lannie,

What kind of gas drops? Never heard of this.

[Lannie2202 25]

If you go to babies r us, cvs, ect they have drops for infant gas relief. Similar to this http://m.mylicon.com/products/infants-mylicondrops

I would put a couple drops in my kids bottle after mixing the formula and it dissolves the bubbles..

Thanks I will have to try this. Funny the drops are simethicone which is what I take afterwards for gas! I'm sure it will be much better having it in the shake.< /p>
