Cant Drink The Protein

Can't drink it, makes me soooo nauseated. And now I got to where I don't want it. I'm thinking of maybe a protein supplement... Like a vitamin... Does that make sense? Lol.

I am getting sick of it too. And the Vitamins don't help either. I keep telling myself I best keep doing it if I want to keep this long, thick hair that my hubby so loves.

Me too girl- I got long hair and I feel it going... My vitamins aren't being kind to the tummy either...

I had major trouble with Protein in the beginning. My nut told me to try different brands to see what would work, as long as it had 18 out of 20 amino acids. Finally figured out whey protein was making me really sick. I now drink GNC soy protein. I like the chocolate mixed with Water and will sometimes add torani coconut syrup. On weekends I'll throw it together with coffee, ice, and some whipped cream, blend it in the Bullet, and it's my version of mocha frappacino!!

My advice is to not stress out about it too much during the first couple of weeks, but keep trying things till you hit on something that will work. Not sure there's a magic pill out there, but if you find one, let me know!!

I hear ya - I am two weeks out and I can barely choke my Protein down - I have tried sooo many brands, they all taste terrible after surgery, on ice, diluted, no matter what I do. I knew I would struggle because I do not like sweet things, and I swear everything is sweet - Vitamins, protein, etc.

I have been limping along with protein Soup, fortified low-fat milk, and my Clear Liquids - so fatigued by the taste of aspartame it isnt even funny. Everything tastes like chemicals - so my little cup of milk and its 9 g of protein is like heaven. I know it has more carbs than I probably should have but I have barely been getting 100-200 cals a day in - so until next week when I am advanced, it will have to do.

Thank goodness for protein chicken soup mix - saving my life lol.

If there was a Chicken broth flavored Premier Protein I would be doing a very happy dance lol.
