    Cant eat poultry ?

    Im 2 ms out as of TODAY... I cant tolerate beef well, it seems to get clogged & takes its time going down (hurts or it feels like its coming back up)... Grilled boneless chicken works better for me. Pasta or rice either.

    August sleevers progress

    I had the same issue, I couldnt take anything w/ whey. I was doing French vanilla Slim Fast w/ Silk Almond milk..but it wasnt enough protein content. The nurse was calling & I got stressed, so I found "EAS" Soy Protein powder @walmart. Its Vanilla but I can use my almond milk. Its 20g/8 oz serv. & Kellogg's Protein Bars (10g/ bar) #works for me
  6. Thank u, I will definitely look for it
  7. Someone at work mentioned the lactose to me also. I mean I have always had an ulcer since a kid and had to watch dairy but I could tolerate some, I got diagnosed with reflux about 10 yrs ago, but for some reason when I tried that whey mess, I even got a orange drink that had that, and a lil Protein Bar with caramel, nuts and stuff (almost like a crunch bar). I got super sick so they are just sitting there. I'll stay with the soy and the almond milk. It seems to work better, I guess. Some days I still run into not really having an appetite but I try to take something.
  8. I never thought of Carnation Instant Breakfast, that saved me during pregnancy, but it really helps with your protein? Is there a sugar free one, or does it matter?
  9. You're doing great then!!! I got that tightness in the chest, but had to learn to sip smaller. I had my surgery on 8/9, I still have a hard time with the protein shakes, I have learned anything with whey is a bad thing for me, I get super sick and it comes back up. I am slowly able to eat meats, but so far grilled chicken is the only one working for me. I did do a few strips of the Oscar Mayer Deli Ham but Im not a big ham eater. I can eat 1/2 of a softly scrambled egg with a lil cheese... so those are my Proteins. I record on My Fitness Pal but I know I get calls from the nurses and the protein #'s is what they talk about. I just can't get it as much. So I have done the Slim Fast a few times with almond milk, but only like 8 oz and I can only get down about 3 oz before it gets on my nerves. I agree earlier when someone said SF popsickles, they save my life!!! I use to love Jello, now I hate jello... the "gelled" form doesn't excite me. Good luck!! We're all gonna get through this together, because I need help and encouragement too.
