Trouble getting my protein



Recommended Posts

I am 8 weeks out and I can hardly eat anything. I am only able to get maybe 1 ounce of Protein in at a meal, anything over that usually ends with me throwing up. I am getting very tired of Protein Shakes. I am reading about what people are eating and how much and don't understand what is going on. I am struggling as to what to do. Any suggestions?

I am 8 weeks out and I've been able to eat 4 shrimp at a time. It's nice to eat food again. I haven't tried any meats yet. I'm thinking I may try to stay away from meats as long as possible. Have you tried Peanut Butter? I started buying protein fat free milk and that's been great. I add a little chocolate Syrup to it and I like that better then protein shakes. I drink about 40 grams of protein a day with that.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
