gustavio 439 Posted September 24, 2016 Ok so I was struggling. I mean really struggling with getting my Protein because i cannot do the shakes. Make me vomit every time. So I ordered gene pro unflavored and tried adding it to drinks, foods etc and still couldn't do it. I could still taste it. So today I had a genius idea. (Not really genius but it is to me ) I mixed the gene pro with one small shot of a beverage of my liking. I used horchata (not the alcohol horchata). Mixed my gene pro in, held my nose and got my 30 grams of protein with one throw back of the shot glass! Didn't even taste it. So I will do that twice more today and be beyond my protein requirements. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fd319 86 Posted September 25, 2016 I was doing the same thing preop, doing shots of Protein just to get it down. Now post op it sucks, cause I can't drink a few sips too close together without gas pain. I've been putting the Protein in my Jello, and just making some v8 juice with protein.

It's like my taste buds changed completely after surgery! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fd319 86 Posted September 25, 2016 It's funny I was hoping mine would change after surgery cause I couldn't even take any type of shake at all, i was hiding the flavor in Greek yogurt. I really can't wait to be able to have yogurt again. Ha. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
