It was for me too but i learned hot liquids went down better so worked around it that way...try different temps..my nutritionist told me 40-50gm of Protein at this stage is plenty i avg 40-45 right now on a good day i can do over 50...i drink my Protein Shake in the morning as soon as i wake up...thats 24-26 right there with 4oz of water... And drink black tea Isopure or another shake later in the day...its the easiest for me...and when i eat..i will make some chicken or tuna and nurse it until im done....

Ok ....thanks for that info .....I will shoot for 45g a day.....

Yeah the Isopure is 40gm a bottle!! So i drink half of one a day and my Protein shake boom met my goal...i must have tried every flavor of isopure and found the tea one...its the only one that dont have the nasty aftertaste to me and half a bottle is doable for me...takes me about 45 to drink half...so if u like at it that way very attainable goal....

My nutritionist said the 51+ gm of Protein this early is too much for our bodies to handle...and i agree! Make sure u take a stool softener or something... If u start taking in a lot of protein!

Ok ....I do take them but they do nothing for me....I mean nothing......when do u go to stage 2 cause I am ova the liquid and Soup stage.....lol
