Protein shakes make me HEAVE/nausea



Recommended Posts

ever since the pre op diet and the first days post op I have become sickened/disgusted with the Premier Protein shakes from Sams club costco and I just cant stand it and have a horrible aversion to them!

I would love some advice as to what to do!

I am drinking Isopure drinks from Vitamin Shoppe 20 oz with 40 grams of Protein its kinda like a gatorade with lots of protein in it.

I think the milky ness and Vitamins in the Protein Drink are making me feel grossed out!

So what is working for you!?

Advice, thoughts?

I didn't like the Isopure. I felt like it had a "cheesy" background smell/flavor. So far, my 2 favorite Protein supplements are the Syntrax Nectars Roadside Lemonade flavor (mix 1 scoop or packet with 16 oz Water makes it most palatable for me, most juice-like) and the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup flavored Protein powder. I can't tell you how much money I have spent on Protein supplements trying to find ones that don't make me want to "technicolor yawn" all over the place. I am so thankful to the companies that have single serve pouches... I have bought 2 full tubs (at about $50 a pop) from companies that I expected to produce a superior product and they were really horrible.

Good luck!

unjury products are at www.unjury.com Most of them are reasonably palatable. Even their vanilla isn't terrible (why oh why is vanilla sooo hard to get right???), though I haven't found a vanilla that is actually good.

BJs Bariatrics www.bjsbariatrics.com has a sampler pack for the Syntrax Nectars that is only about $15 for 11? packets of flavors you get to choose. They try to make shipping as reasonable as possible. I prefer the fruit juice flavors to the sweets personally. I really did not like the apple flavor in particular, though.

I found the Unjury chocolate splendor to be too sweet. I would have rather had it with 12 or 16 oz of milk instead of 8. I haven't tried the classic chocolate yet. I imagine I will prefer that to the splendor. But, who knows which I will prefer if mixed with Water instead?

Good luck!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
