I've had the band a week and have had constant diahrreah since. I've tried 2-3 types of whey Protein drinks, and now soy, and it still happens like clockwork, just a few minutes after I start drinking my shake. Is this normal? I'm mixing only with Water, so I don't know what else to do.

Help!!!!!

I had the same problem, I tried whey isolate and soy protein and they both made me sick (bloating, gas) and was surprised that they both did this to me as I used to be able to do both when I was younger. I found some weight trainer websites and found that both cause people gas a lot of times, so this may your problem. I found that pea protein does not make me sick, but it's a taste to get used to, I tried sugar free syrups, but it didn't help the taste much, so this did not last long. But then I found Zoic at Big Lots and the flavors are good (don't care too much for cookies and cream) and this does not make me sick. It is not whey isolate, but if you wanted to give it a try, you could always run this by your nutritionist, mine okay'd it for me since I had problems with the others.

Thank you!!!!!!

After a week of constant diahrreah, I'll try anything at this point!!!

Try hemp protein shakes. I had problems with soy and whey as well. Hemp was weird tasting but I got used to it. I also got an egg white protein. Weird tasting and very frothy, but it worked well. Hopefully you don't have too much longer before you get to soft foods.
