There is a variety of non-milk based Protein powders. Soy, pea, rice, hemp etc.

Vega tastes very sweet (if you mean the brand Brendan Brazier created). It's very heavy on stevia. I use some Vega products as well but only occasionally.

So far I'm liking MRM Veggie Protein, but it's only available online. Someone recommended Orgain to me which is available at costco. Are you allergic to cow's milk or does that include plant-based milk as well? My favorite is soy but there's almond, rice, coconut, hemp, flax, etc. - all kind of milk!

Cow milk the other milks. I would like to make it myself because there are none ready to go shakes that are milk free. Only poweder do it your self at home. Thats fine but i would like something other than that. I know i can use other kinds of "milk" and i do but i need some bullet proof recepie.

Wslmart has a plant,based shake called Vega, haven't found anyone who has tried it,but I would guess,there would be no whey in it.

Hi. Pre op I tried several Protein powders as I am allergic to dairy (the protein in it) I did try the Vega and it tastes ok but made me VERY constipated ... took me over a month after stop using it to get back to “normal”. I use (and have for about 30 yrs) “spiru-tein “ Protein Powder, ,, it is pea protein based, comes in different flavors.. I can add it to the butternut squash Soup and is very good... the program had me try “Olly “ brand but I didn’t like it... and t didn’t feel like it had any protein in it (didn’t make me feel full) and tends to tastes a bit chalky.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
