I like Ensure protein. I have chocolate and drink one a day 30g. of Protein little sugars. After surgery, everything tastes bad so just stick with it. I pour it over ice every morning.

Orgain organic protein. Little pricey but it's vegan. I also have troubles with dairy products my mother bought a bunch of premiere protein shakes and some protein waters from another brand. They all have whey protein which is a dairy based protein. After surgery when i got home I tried to drink them and I actually got incredibly sick. I felt worse than I had in the hospital. I stopped drinking them and stuck to water for the day since I could not go out at the time and there's no postmates around here. I had my fiance pick me up that protein powder and made my own protein shakes. I definitely feel stronger, better, less gassy and less nauseous now. So if you have a dairy intolerance of any sort you should try doing this. It really did help. Hope it helps you

I found that if I diluted the Premier Protein Clear, it became much more drinkable! (Plus added water to my goal)

Hi everyone.
I'm on pre-op and I bought enough protein to last into post-op. Stupidly.
Isopure unflavored
Isopure zero carb vanilla
Nectar lemon ice tea
Premier protein pack of 12 clear protein peach

Reccomended by the clinic doing the surgery. Reccomended based on my issues - I'm lactose intolerant. I dislike milk in general. I don't enjoy milkshakes.
The first clear protein peach was nice. The first nectar was ok, minis the off putting color that made me feel weird. Tasting a clear liquid liked iced tea, but brain saw a milky liquid in the glass.

Day two, I try the vanilla from isopure. Smells makes me gag. Added matcha powder in it. Still disgusting.
Tried putting some isopure unflavored in to lukewarm beef stock. Chalky. Starts to clump. Manage to drink it.
Day three, I try another clear drink. This time it tastes too sweet. And the aftertaste is sickening. Later that day I try another lemon ice tea. I'm literally gag at the smell. I have to hold my nose to chug it.
I don't know what to do. I stupidly spent a lot of money on this stuff trying to be prepared, we're moving house the weekend after my surgery, I also don't drive, which is why I ordered so much in advance.
Today I'm lying in bed, 6 days until surgery, and even the thought of Greek yogurt and cottage cheese makes me sick. Protein powder sounds like a torture right now.
Help a milk-hater out.
TLDR: diary of my protein powder tasting. It's all disgusting. Please give advice.

Hold your nose while drinking it. It will reduce your ability to taste it. Then before you let go of your nose you take a swig of water to clear the taste. Good luck.
