You may want to try a Protein supplement with whey "isolate" as opposed to whey "concentrate" if you haven't already. The difference between the two is the amount of filtering. whey isolate is 90 to 96% pure Protein with most fat and lactose removed. Most folks who are lactose intolerant can tolerate whey isolate. The bad news is that isolate is usually more expensive as the ultra filtering process is costly.

As others have pointed out, there are many soy products out there to chose from. The trick, whether whey or soy, is finding a product that you like the taste of. Always a good idea to buy small quantities until you find the right one. Be persistent and don't give up until you find a way to get ALL of your daily protein. You'll be glad you did!!

      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! 😞
