protein drinks

By x2gamble

Hi!

 

I had the vertical sleeve surgery on July 12th. I'm having a realy hard time getting enough protein. Also, enough liquids in general.

 

My diet is soft foods, pureed or fork tender. I've pushed myself about a week ahead of my food schedule because of the protein thing.

 

I'm having a problem with a metalic taste in my mouth and feeling lite headed and dizzy.

 

Any suggestions for protein drinks other than Ispoure, which makes the metalic taste worse and Premier nutrion drink, which taste like chalk????

    I know they are more expensive, but the ONLY way I have been able to get them down is by using the RTD(ready to drink) ones. The powder is just horrible and those little protein shots are so sickening sweet. Right now I use "Oh Yeah" brand in the chocolate milkshake flavor. One other thing is to get some Jay Robb unflavored protein powder, you can add it to casseroles, drinks, whatever and it is usually hidden well. Good luck to you.
