Need Advice- Non Whey Protein Powders?



Recommended Posts

Well, apparently, I'm allergic to pure whey isolate. Throat kinda closes up and stomach gets all wonky.

I ordered some powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (actually, ordered their sample kit) and had high hopes for the chicken Soup and unflavored ones. Now I've got to hurry and find some alternatives. I don't live in a big town so everything needs to be ordered and I don't have a lot of money. Sample options would be helpful too, if possible.

I need some help. Looking at options for ease of use for after surgery. Which is in a week! :blink:

Something that can be used with broth would be nice too. Variety. Nothing too sweet.

I've been searching on here for past posts but am getting bogged down and running out of time!

Thanks for your help!!!

If you have Trader Joe's, they have Hemp Protein, that has no whey or dairy derivatives in it.

You have to watch some of the soy Proteins...sometimes they sneak in whey or dairy for 'enrichment'.

I am 3 weeks post-op and went from lactose intolerant to lactose allergic. I am also allergic to whey Protein isolate and concentrate. It has taken me this whole time to figure this out. I came home from the hospital and broke open the unjury chicken Soup and have felt horrible since then.

I have used Spiru-tein in the past. You can get it at a variety of health food stores, GNC even carries a couple of flavors. They are soy Protein.< /p>

I haven't tried the hemp yet - next stop. I have tried the pea Protein shakes and I really don't like them. Right now I am sipping a homemade concotion. This is the first thing since Water and juice that feels okay in my sleeve.

8 oz almond milk (or whatever)

1/2 c cottage cheese (Lactaid seems to be working for me right now)

2T Peanut Butter

1t vanilla extract (I don't have any syrups at home...yet!)

Ice

Blend

      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.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
