Help! Ideas for clear protein, can't drink whey

[Road Runner 66]

Help! I'm five days post-op and have had terrible dumping. Yesterday and today I omitted my clear whey Protein, and no problem. But now what should I do for Protein? I went to the health food store today and all clear liquid has whey in it. I'm four days out from full liquid. I"ve contacted my Dr. office and am waiting for a reply from them.

Has anyone used a Protein Powder this early on and just watered it down a lot? I don't want to hurt my pouch. Since I stopped the whey yesterday I've felt so much better. No dumping, and no horrible gas pains. I'm still sore, but able to walk just fine. All in all, I'm happy with my recovery.

Any advice you could give will be greatly appreciated!!

Concentrate on staying hydrated while you wait to hear back from your surgeon. I think most of the Protein drinks/shakes use whey as the protein source. Have you been able to try a different brand? Hopefully your surgeon will get back to you soon.

Sams has Protein Water. That's what helps me reach my daily protein intake.

bottles of Isopure.

can order cases straight from the company website. fruity flavors and clear. 40g of Protein per bottle, zero carbs. they’ve been a godsend for me. i’ve drank 1 a day, everyday, for the 6 months since my surgery. couldn’t have done it without,

Thanks, everyone. My Dr said no powdered Protein for another 3 days to just stay clear. The Isopure has whey protein, also. I’m going to check out Sams today and see if that works.

I love this stuff. I use it when it isn't convenient to mix powder when I travel.
