Nausea with Premier protein



Recommended Posts

I have been drinking Premier Protein shakes since my surgery on 10/28. They have recently started causing really bad nausea. Anyone have any suggestions on alternatives?

The Premier Protein started making me sick too. I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (van or choc) with unsweetened almond milk and PB2 powder.

I went to GNC tonight to go check out other Protein choices. I like premier but am getting tired of it real quick. My wife showed me Isopure it's more like a Gatorade then a milky substance like the premier. I'm going to try it tomorrow I'll report back good thing is that it has 40g of protein so two of those a day and bam daily intake met.

I use the Isopure no carbs. I like them but I only use the teas & coconut flavors.

Well just about finished my first Isopure while I wouldn't say it's great tasting I wouldn't say it's bad. It taste like Water downed diet Gatorade. But it beats the milky Protein Drinks that I have gotten old of quick. I tried icy orange. I bought three other flavors to try. 40grams of Protein 160 cal 1 serving isn't that bad I don't think I think it's something I will keep drinking to change it up. post-265643-14470338323264_thumb.jpg post-265643-14470338453161_thumb.jpg

I have developed a sensitivity to both Preimier and Protein Water.< /p>

Severe cramping so much that Dr. put me on real food at week one. I am eating a lot of turkey and chicken meatballs (ground meat). They are tender and have had no issue. I had to go on the pre surgery twice because i had to cancel the first scheduled surgery due to death in family....i think it built up in my system.

Tried today to have a premier today just to see if i could since haven't had it in several weeks and i bought a lot. Same story....cramping

I haven't had problems with unjury so far. Premier Protein is a Protein concentrate- meaning you are only absorbing about 12g of the protein in each shake, not the entire 30g. Unjury is a pure protein isolate, so you are absorbing every gram of protein in each scoop. I have the unflavored and mix it with EVERYTHING (cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, Soups, smoothies, etc)

I'm willing to try anything right now. Going back to the surgeon tomorrow for my check up. She sells Unjury out of her office.

All of them made me extremely nauseous. Premier, Unjury, Isopure, shakes, powders, it just instantly triggers gagging. I ended up living on Fairlife fat free milk (added Protein Calcium, sugar and lactose filtered out) I mixed with sugar free strawberry Syrup or diet hot cocoa mix for variety, and I used it almost exclusively for about two months until I could start eating solids to get my protein.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
