Help with protein shakes



Recommended Posts

Ok so I'm 1 week post op and my body is acting a little strange towards Protein Shakes. I have tried the ones I used on my pre op diet and they make me gag. I have purchased some new ones and I'm having the same feeling. I move to the soft food phase in 3 days but does anyone have any suggestions on how to get down these Protein shakes. I'm know I'm not getting my recommended amount but I don't know what else to try

I had the same problem...hated all my shakes post op. The best thing to do is to go to a nutritional store like the Vitamin Shoppe or GNC and buy a couple individual bottles of some different brands and try them and see what you liked

I also liked mine better when I added somethings to them. vanilla shake with some ice cubes and Decaf instant coffee is almost like a frappuccino....or a shake with some frozen fruit

When preparing for surgery I stocked up with hundreds of dollars of a variety of high quality organic and grass fed whey and Protein powders. I hated them all. A friend turned me onto doctor axe collagen powder and I have been using it for the last five months to get enough protein. Collagen powder is also known to be very good for skin hair and nails! This particular collagen powder is high-quality, and it dissolves completely and tastelessly into anything. I drink it in my coffee. It is a priceless nutritional support for me. And recent bloodwork indicates that I am getting plenty of protein just by doing this!

Does anyone know if heating the Premier shakes will destroy the nutritional value

Like others I am sick of them and need a new twist
