I add flavorless Protein Powder to jello! My surgeon recommends putting it in everything you can stand to help get the Protein in. It made my Jello a little funky, but it was worth it to make it better for me!

Were you adding your Protein powder to milk?

I have had to start using almond milk, because I was not feeling well after I used 1% cow's milk.

I was lactose intolerant before surgery, but still ate some dairy, but not milk. Milk isn't on my surgeon's diet for this week, but he does allow skim, 1%, and 2% later. I will probably just use almond milk. I prefer it and I know it won't give me any issues. One of my co-workers said that you can buy drops online that will take the lactose out of the milk in 24 hours. That is what our RNY bodies have a hard time with, so if you were really into cow's milk, you could go that route!

You should go for the unsweetened almond milk-

Try adding unflavored Protein powder to broth and cream Soups. I use Isopure unflavored and it is a change from sweet Protein Shakes. One scoop has 26g of protein.

I had my surgery Dec 18, 2012.... I had a hard time Also! So I was eating Mashed Beans and Egg whites.... After Surgery for some our system changes our taste buds change, it may take awhile for things to get back to Normal, last week was the 1st time I was able to drink a shake and not get sick! But my Nutritionist said that Syntrax Nector or Premier r the ones most people can handle better along w/ Ungury. Syntrax sometimes has samples 866.333.7403 or ungury 800.517.5111 or check thr website. GOOD LUCK.

Should Protein powder be added to Water or milk?

You can add it to either. Low/no fat milk, soy or otherwise gives it added protein and helps it taste better. For me that is a huge bonus. My fave is a scoop of GNC pro performance whey protein powder (in chocolate flavor) with a cup of lite vanilla silk (soy). It's 26g of protein. Tastes better than chocolate milk.

Try the lite, 70 calories for 1 cup (at least for the lite vanilla soy silk that I drink). 1.5g fat, 5g sugar and 6g Protein.< /p>

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
