Protein Drinks that will not make me sick



Recommended Posts

I am trying shakes pre op and had the Pure Protein (worldwide protein) and had very bad "runs" all day... I wonder if anyone had this experience and if they know what is going on... Maybe it is the Lactose? Can anyone reccomend protein that is good that will not cause this side effect?

I couldnt handle the Worldwide shakes either and didnt like them. The only Protein shake I like is the 50 Grand Slams from GNC in the red can.

They have a powder too, but i dont care for it.

Inspire Protein powder from bariatriceating.com is really good. I esp. like the Dutch chocolate, PB Cookie, PURE unflavored (good in Soups and other foods), and Pom Razz Sangria (mixed with a little Crystal Light).

Even my kids love the Dutch chocolate with warm almond milk.

My absolute favorite are the EAS AdvantEDGE Carb Control. 110 calories, 17 grams Protein. They are premixed, single serving shakes and they saved my life during the pre-op diet. I did powder mixes as much as I could stand (since it is economically better than the individually packaged drinks), but these taste the best to me. Also, Atkins brand shakes are good too. I've found both at walgreens, cvs, target.

I have one called DESSERT that isn;t too bad, but my favorite is smoothie King Gladiator. not the chocolate one though. it is a Meal Replacement shake with 45 grams of protein.

I thought taking in Protein Shakes I was definately going to have the runs. My first 5 shakes proved my worst fear, but then I ordered some samples of Bariatric Advantage and wah-lah no more sick belly. I like the banana and strawberry. I think it just takes trying many different ones and see what works for you! Good Luck!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
