Ugh - protein shake is making me nauseous



Recommended Posts

So today is day one of a week of liquid Protein Shakes of my preop diet (then 2 weeks of high Protein, low carb, low fat eating then 1 week of protein liquid again alternating).

The shakes make me feel nauseous. They are just too sweet. I’m dealing with Premier Protein - vanilla, chocolate, & caramel. My plan is to do Unjury unflavored in Water with crystal light but my shipment won’t get here until Tuesday. Any tips???

Dilute with unsweetened Almond or coconut milk? or add 1 cup of cold, Decaf coffee for an iced latte?

I hate Protein Shakes unless they are filled with Peanut Butter. My only advice is to not breath while drinking and to chug. It's funny because sometimes I am not chugging it; therefore, when I talk to people while drinking I am only breathing through my mouth and I sound so funny. They are all like, "What is your deal?" and I am all like, "I hate Protein shakes!" But I gotta do what I gotta do! Let me tell you I am a terrible emotional binge eater. This has been the hardest week for myself; however, somehow I stuck to it! I did not cheat once! If I can do it, you can do it! :) :) Good luck! Also, try making your own shake! My nutritionist said I can have once scoop with fairlife milk, banana, and 2 tsp of natural peanut butter. Does make it much better.

I get 3 dairy servings (either 1 cup of milk) or yogurt. I’ve been doing the yogurt so I get to “eat” something. Ugh! Maybe I’ll get used to it. 🤢

I truly just recommend not breathing. If I breath, I gag. Trust me! :) I don't know how I am going to take little sips throughout the entire day after surgery ughhhhhhhh

Drink ice cold,

The best flavor I've found is Isopure Dutch chocolate, too expensive for me to buy constantly

runner up, premier caramel in coffee

honorable mentions

EAS carb control rich/royal chocolate, premier peaches and cream in almond milk with peach or banana blended or with Good Earth's Matcha Maker tea

I realized you can't have all of this now, but come back to it later

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
