sbagby1960 65 Posted October 7, 2015 I'm almost 5 weeks out and I've been drinking Premier Protein, but everyday that goes by, they make me more nauseous. I threw up this morning. I have some Unjury powder that I put in my Crystal Lite, but the consistency makes me sick. I know I'm being picky. Where do you get Syntrax Nectar? I need something that will go in my Crystal Lite that doesn't make it too thick. What are some good options? I can't get enough Protein from food yet. When can you eat Protein Bars?

fernandfj 469 Posted October 7, 2015 Have you tried unflavored Protein? I found one on Amazon that is an unflavored whey isolate that I make smoothies with in the morning. I used vanilla flavored whey isolate for three weeks pre-op and for eight weeks after surgery and I couldn't tolerate it by the end of the eighth week. I am now making smoothies using oj or milk, fresh fruit and frozen berries and it goes down real smooth. You have to be careful regarding carbs, especially from the fruit, but my stomach can handle the Protein again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted October 7, 2015 Try Protein waters like the Syntrax Nectar or Isopure nocarb drinks. You can buy them either online or at Vitamin stores like GNC and Vitamn Shoppe. If the drinks are too thick, add Water or serve over ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OKCPirate 5,323 Posted October 7, 2015 @@sbagby1960 - your stomach should be healed, so protien bars shouldn't be a problem. Run by GNC and try Isopure. 40g per bottle. Not everyone likes it but it might work for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExcitedNana 30 Posted October 7, 2015 Could you freeze it and make something like a pudding pop? I can't handle anything thick unless it's frozen. I also can't do anything 'sugar free'. Good luck & hope you find a fix. I tried Special K strawberry Protein Bar (meal bar) and it was very tasty. I ate half and my husband ate half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krista132 213 Posted October 7, 2015 If it is a consistency of the drink issue, I would add more Water. Doesn't matter how much water you add, as long as you drink it. I make my daily Protein Shakes with 24 oz of water instead of the 8 oz they suggest. I don't like it at a thick consistency, so that helps me, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Champ715 207 Posted October 7, 2015 I have been using the unjury strawberry lemonade powder in my Water bottle. It was fine the first few days but now the sweetness is nauseating to me. This morning I mixed it with greek yogurt and coconut milk in a smoothie and it was MUCH more tolerable. I think the thicker consistency helped me. The powder in nothing but Water was just yucky.
