This Is Gross, But The Protein Mix Is



Recommended Posts

Giving me spontaneous, uncontrollable diarrhea (like water). Any suggestions for Protein supplement? I've got 2 more weeks of fluids.

Try Muscle Milk light. it doesn't have that Protein taste.

As far as the runs,,, well it's Water in, and water out. you can't change that, unless you thicken it up.

Try another brand. There is one brand that reacts like that with me. I use 100% whey from costco (made by Muscle Milk) and Jay Robb brands. Neither of them sends me running to the bathroom.

Vitamin Shoppe and Whole Foods both sell several of the Jay Robb varieties in single serve packs, so you can try one before committing.

Good luck.

try something without dairy. some people may not be sensitive to milk products while on their regular diet but when the diet is altered it can cause you to be more sensitive to it . i experience this myself and i have opted to blend my Protein Powder with almond milk or soy milk

Did this happen on or about the 3rd day of drinking it ?

i found that powdered Protein mix that you mix with milk causes a bit of gas and blocks me up a little. however i found that if i drink "Boost" Protein Drink it doesnt cause probs. it comes in little bottles , near the diabetic supplies. it comes in strawberry, choc and vanilla and its very good. keep in mind some people (like me)get diareaha and stomach prob when you have anytjing sugar free because its made with fake sugars that can cause your probs. make sure you read the labels closely on "sugar free" items. good luck !!

Ebay has Muscle Coupons save $6.00 limit 2 on RTD, at Costco's

Just type in Muscle Milk, and keep scrolling down, you might have to go threw a page or 2.

It's at $1.95 Free Shipping.

For you people who get it at Costco's this is a buy.

If interested.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
