me and protein don't mix

I also was sleeved on the 11th and i can't do the Protein Shakes they make me sick to my stomach. I did however try the Special K Protein Drinks and can tolerate them better the down side is they only have 10 grams of Protein in them.

I buy my Isopure at GNC (In store) or online on Amazon.com

Yup I bought mine at GNC as well!

I struggled with the shakes too, but finally found one I like. I don't like the Isopure fruit waters, but I love the Isopure low carb dutch chocolate. I found it at GNC. They have a return policy, so if you don't like it, you can take it back. Its not as sweet as other brands, and not as thick, so its easier to drink. I thought it didn't have as much of a nasty Protein taste like other brands too.

I've bought both flavors, but I haven't tried them yet... I'm pre-op though.

I had a lot of problems post surgery with Protein drinks. My NUT recommended trying an egg protein, so I did Jay Robb egg Protein Powder and it changed everything. It taste good and I tolerate it fine. chocolate is my preferred flavor, I do not like the strawberry. The vanilla is ok, I just add different flavors of Torani sugar free Syrup. Before Jay Robb I had tried numerous protein drinks, they just didn't agree with me. Such as, Premier Protein, nectar, Isopure, pure protein and probably more.

I boiled a skinless chicken breast in some chicken broth and added just one tbs of cream. I take a small amount each day and purée it in the blender - best thing ever. I have also added a boiled potato and spinach and puréed as well. Taste like a chicken pot pie - but I can only get about 4 bites in so the fat and cho's are too low to be harmful. I'm a diabetic educator - so have some background in nutrition. I also found an already made shake called "Rocking Refuel" that is my savior. I buy the chocolate that is 190 calories and 30 gms of Protein per 12 oz serving. Amazing! It is made with with milk protein rather than whey so doesn't have a chalky protein taste at all. Google them for their website to find a retailer near you. They are by the chocolate milk at my grocery store. The Vanilla and strawberry are amazing as well - but lower protein and higher calories. If I'm really struggling, I will have half of one though. Haven't tried it yet, but the brand Silk that makes soy and almond milk has a new juice with protein. And last - there is a drink called Kefir - it is really just liquid yogurt. There are flavored ones and plain which you could add half a banana to for a smoothie. Kefir is gluten and lactose free - which is nice. It is usually in the organic dairy section at the grocery store. Hope this helps!

I was sleeved 6/12 and struggle with Protein Shakes as well in different flavors. Before surgery I drank them really fast so they would be down but now only able to take sips I haven't managed the minimum 60grams/day as perscribed yet

Where do u find Jay Robb?

[BKLYNgal87 503]

Everyone has different tastes! I have used Jay Robb since the beginning of my pre-op diet and I tolerated it for 2 weeks pre-surgery, but after my surgery I cannot stand it . Stupid me for buying it in bulk! I have several different extracts I use like almond, raspberry, mint, etc. - it's not cutting it anymore. But since I'm cheap-o I'll finish what I have and maybe try Isopure.< /p>

I have bought Jay Robb at the Vitamin shoppe and also Whole Foods (much cheaper at WF).
