Not tolerating any protein supplement on clear, week one



Recommended Posts

My surgery was12/28, I had SILS and am blessed. So here at day 4 I am not getting enough fluids, but close. Definitely not getting 60gm of Protein. The supplements that I purchased make me so nauseated. I never had sweet tooth, now I can't take any of the favors. I vomited on day 2 after trying protein Jello, talk about scary.

I did tolerate a nectar, coconut flavor, but barely.

So I am going to keep on my broths, organic chicken was best, my fluids and just have to work on protein in week 2. Vomiting was scary and I don't want to do it again.

So I do have a few bottles of Isopure if anybody needs them. I know that many people don't mind the flavor, you can message me or email me .

So I have experienced hyper taste changes, and sensitivity to smells. Looking forward to full liquids in a few days

In the beginning it was difficult for me drinking Protein Shakes made with milk. I started making mine with 4oz milk and 4oz Water and tolerated it much better.

I'm 7 weeks post op. I throw up from sip one on every Protein Drink I have tried. My nut and dr had be start Protein Bars at 5 weeks. That has been much easier on my tummy. I eat 1/2 a bar in the morning and afternoon for my Snacks. It works well and let's me get MUCH closer to my Protein goals for the day.

Unjury has a Protein chicken broth which is nice and an unflavored kind you can add to miso or whatever broth you like. It gets easier when you can have full liquids and can add the unjury unflavored to cream based Soups.< /p>

Re:super smell....I suffered from that for about a week, but others said it lasted as long as 7 months! My taste was affected and I didn't like the protein powders I bought, so I switched to nonfat powdered MILK....I was told to add it to Soups, etc to boost protein. I was allowed "full" liquids immediately after I left the hospital. Not sure what your doctor told you to do.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
