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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
