Bitter tasting shakes with burping

[Damasyn 1]

Ok, so today I started my pre op liquiid diet. I have many different brands to try and see what fits me best or I can tolerate. BUT with that being said, so far I am burping and generally have a bitter foul taste.

* please note * When ever I have tried diet drinks in the past even sodas, anything with fake sweeteners, makes me ill , I will burp and taste it all day

Which is exactly what i am doing now.

I dont think I can take 3 weeks of this. And if I need to drink alot of these protien shakes afterwards, Im looking at the same problem. I am getting this sharp metallic bitter taste that is not going away, and the gas tastes even worse.

Any hints or ideas to help ? I have already cheated some, to cut the bitter metallic taste I have eaten a couple potato chips.

Most of the common Protein shakes are whey based. You may want to look for other Protein powder sources such as Gemma Peas or Egg Whites.

I just started using pure Protein Powder the whey Protein One. It's pretty good.
