protein?

[CANDI254 31]

I am 7 weeks post op and I haven't met my Protein requirement any out of those 7 weeks. I was really sick until this week so am just now being able to take my Vitamins but Protein drinks are still not something I can keep down. I have tried many different ones. Anyone else having this issue or any ideas?

Have you talked to your surgeon and/or NUT? You have got to get in your Protein.< /p>

Yeah I have. They just tell me to keep doing what im doing (eggs, yogurt) ive seen on here Protein Shots and I think ill try them. Know anything about their taste?

@@CANDI254 I've never had one that taste good - have you tried the Isopure ready made clear Protein Drinks? They have 40 grams per bottle.

[CANDI254 31]

No thats the first ive heard of them. Just called a healthfood store where I live and they have green apple. I will go try one for lunch. Hopefully ill be able to drink it. Thanks.

Personally I prefer the grape iso pure.

Also nature's best makes a Dutch chocolate protien powder. 50 grams per 2 scoops. It's think and not too chalky. Best Protein shake I've had!

[CANDI254 31]

The powders no matter how much Water or milk I add seem to be to thick and come right back up. Green apple is the only choice I hav. I actually do not like green apple and would love to find grape.

Do u have a Vitamin Shoppe near by

I used ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates early out.

Have you tried GENEPRO? I mix it with iced tea. It's not thick and it actually dissolves.

I'd steer clear of the "protein shots". The type of Protein in them is not high quality and is not well absorbed.

@@CANDI254 Yea just buy one to see. They can be expensive and I've only tried 2 kinds. let me know how it goes, even if you hate it lol!!

[CANDI254 31]

Welp just got the green apple Isopure. Hmm. Its very sour. The guy said they would have different flavors monday. This one is drinkable and so far has not made me sick

yeah just talked to the my nutritionist and she said the same thing. I found another store that has more flavs of the Isopure and also something called cocotein that I may try.
