Protein shakes

[kate_0329 29]

I'm 5 days post op. I'm still on full liquids for another 10 days. This morning I tried a sip of the premier Carmel Protein Shake. I instantly got stomach cramps and had to use the bathroom. Ugh, anyone have different suggestions for Protein Shakes?

Make your own shakes with Protein Powder and Fairlife milk

Try trutein sample packs and see which ones you like. You can only get them online, just search for trutein.

Try vegan or plant based Protein. They have it at costco. The one I use is called Orgain. Some people tolerate plants better than dairy.

I was lactose intolerant after surgery and for the first like 4 mo the or so. You can either attempt to use lactase tablets until it gets better, or You can try a non lactose form of Protein like Vega protein. It is a vegan protein as well. They carry it on Amazon in a 4pk. The chocolate is pretty good and contains no lactose. I didn't know about Vega when I was going through it so I basically lived off of Syntrax which was easier to digest and my NUT advanced me to puréed eggs early on so I could get more protein.
