aprilny 0 Posted November 16, 2019 I had my bypass surgery on the 12th this month and I've started to drink the Protein Water I could tolorate it before surgery and now I can't. I also cannot tolorate any of the milk or powder I'm very worried to get malnourished I don't know what to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may want to call your dietician for options and malnutrition concerns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aprilny 0 Posted November 16, 2019 I'm not vomiting I just get the upset stomach where it hurts and feel like I'm gonna vomit so I stop because I don't wanna cause any damage because my surgery is so fresh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aprilny 0 Posted November 16, 2019 Yes that's all I do is sip I fill the 1oz cup they give at the hospital and I take sips from there and after every sip I wait about 5 min and it turns my stomach to where if I keep going I'm going to throw up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NancyLF 234 Posted November 16, 2019 What brand are you drinking? Before my surgery I was trying out Premier Protein Water, with no problem. However AFTERWARDS, I couldn't stand it! I found it to be much too sweet. I had to split the bottle & mix it with equal parts water. I found Protein 2O, which I find to be much better. The Grape & berry flavors are my favorite. I don't care for the pineapple/coconut one as much. I get them from Rite-Aid. Perhaps a different brand might help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aprilny 0 Posted November 16, 2019 Protein 20 is what I tried along with the primer. Then the milky shakes and a few different powder ones. They all don't sit right with me. I've spent so much money on different things that I don't know anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sorry you're having a hard time finding something that works for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
