post-op Finally a protein powder I can do post-op

[TwinsMama 483]

I have had a long road with vomiting, lactose intolerance, and not being able to do Protein powders post-op. Pre-op I could do pretty much any one that tasted good with no stomach issues. Well, I finally found one I can do post-op.

Literally, the ONLY one I can do post-op. I tried Designer whey (yes shocked me that I could do a milk based one) Plain & Simple. It is unflavored (though I can taste it in water/almond milk). I've figured out the only way I can drink it is to make an iced Chai Tea with sugar free vanilla Soy Milk, pure vanilla, and a 3/4 scoop of the Protein.< /p>

If I use a whole scoop of protein I'm back to vomiting and feeling stomach pains. This is a relief for me because I wanted to try and up my protein and I couldn't do it without something in liquid form.

Hope this helps anyone who is not able to do Protein shakes post-op. Again...this is a whey product which I've found I cannot do using any other Protein powder or RTD.

Glad you found one that works!

That's half the battle sometimes finding one that tastes good and settles well..,

You should try a whey Protein isolate it has no lactose and its the leanest form of protein I use Precision whey protein isolate from Vitamin world it's my favorite.. 30 grams for 130 calories is amazing mixes easily too

I totally understand you. The ONLY one I can stomach is muscle milk light. The flavors are pretty descent. chocolate and peach mango.
