Help! I can't tolerate this stuff!

The flavors, that is. Anyone have experience with Egg White, Rice or other powder proteins? How would you describe it? I've been trying to get protein in through meats but just can't do it comfortably. I'd like to be able to get supplementation with the various powders but it really is making me wretch. Help!

I couldn't get past it either. I ended up finally finding Any Whey ([ame=http://www.amazon.com/Optimum-Nutrition-Instantized-Protein-2-7-Pound/dp/B000GIUQOG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1271715736&sr=8-1]Amazon.com: 100% Any Whey Protein: Health & Personal Care[/ame]) and Unjury Chicken Soup (unjury.com) ... I put 1/2 Scoop of Any Whey into my yogurt to boost it up 9g of protein and use the Unjury (mix with 4 oz of warm, not boiling water). Unjury will send you sample packets so at least you aren't stuck with a tub of something you can't stand.

Never tried the other proteins since my surgeon was strict about only using Whey protein.

Best of luck - it's no fun gagging stuff down. Hopefully others will chime in on their discoveries.

I couldn't tolerate any of them either. Either the taste, smell or texture robbed me of using them, or they made me puke my guts up.

I was able to get my protein from greek yogurt, cheese, egg whites, and super mushy chicken/tuna/egg salad. It took time to build up to getting the necessary amounts, but I didn't think it was worth to puke and hurt myself to get extra protein from the mixes.

A lot of people enjoy the Jay Robb brand, and the Muscle Milk Light pre-mixed cartons were 'okay ' for me for a little bit.
