I can't be the only one that can't stomach protein!

I don't use Protein Shakes or bars, I try to get my Protein from food. I felt very sick when I was using protein shakes and bars for 9 months. Try cottage cheese, nuts any kind, Beans, avocado, eggs, cheese, meat, fish. eat often stay away for artificial protein.

My surgeon says the same. Our program requires Proteins from real food as well.

That's great cause that's what I've been doing also. I eat chicken, fish, eggs, turkey, cheese and anything with Protein.

I couldn't do the shakes either. I try to do as much meat/beans as possible and I do carnation shakes with Fairlife milk so I get Protein in two ways. Also, egg white shakes are ok, the All Whites website has a bunch of Protein heavy shake recipes.

I was on Protein Shakes and Proteins bars for 9 months, the first 2/3 months are hard but don't try anything that is not in your diet plan, if get stuck you can cause many problems. I know it's hard but until your doctor ok any solid foods don't try.

Try different kinds of protein until you find what you like. At that stage is normal to feel nauseated, Premier Protein chocolate what I used. I tried the protein waters and was terrible to me. Keep trying just make sure on sugar content. And sugar alcohol. Make lentil Soup and drink the soup of it or blend it. Split peas soup, they are pretty easy to make
