Protein Yuck!

Post op day 5. Doing really good. Getting all my fluids in. Got in most of my protein yesterday. But wait.. I'm sick of all this sweet crap. I do like my strained soups.

So far I've tried muscle milk light, unjory chocalate splendor, various isopures and I hate them. Tooo sweet, no substance just plain Yuck. Pours down drain. What else can I try?

UJURY is the best...believe me I tried everything and spent no telling how much. STILL even with the best tasting shake it gets boring tying to get the protein in!

try syntrax nectar comes in different flavors

My favorite is the ready to drink special K milk chocolate. It has 190 calories and 10 grams of protien. Not the lowest calorie or highest protien but unlike the others it actually tastes good and doesn't get poured down th he sink. I like to mix the shake with a quarter or half cup of low fat milk and a splash of coffee (cuts the sweetness).

I can't get the drinks down at all either. I'm 4 weeks out. Don't know what I'm going to do.

Early on I was able to tolerate Unjury Chicken Soup. Just like chicken broth with lots of protein; you can also use it to make mashed potatoes. I was strictly Unjury Chocolate Splendor and Unflavored my first few months, then branched out to some Synthrax Nectars and Smoothie King Gladiator in Vanilla. I make a yummy iced or hot latte with my Kuirig, nonfat milk, a little SF French vanilla creamer and the vanilla Gladiator. It's not too sweet, and you could do decaf if its still early days for you. It gets better!! Strive to work toward at least 60+ grams of protein!!

Another vote for Unjury chicken soup. One scoop is 21g of protein and I actually like the taste. I make some when I get home from work and drink it from a coffee mug.
