Nauseated On Protein



Recommended Posts

Does Protein make anyone else nauseated. I can't eat but two bites of chicken before I want to barf. Beef is ok as well as eggs. The only Protein shake that I can stomach is the pure protein cans. But at 4 bucks a can that is expensive.

Is this normal and will it go away.

DOS: 10/3/12

I couldn't handle the Protein Drinks either. I've been trying to get my Protein in with meat, but yesterday I found GNC Total Lean Lean shakes they have 25 gr protein and they taste great and no nausea or vomiting. There lactose free. They come in powder and premade. I got the premade and they were on sale for 4/7.99. I would definetly check out GNC. Talk to someone who works there and I'm sure they will help you. I was going to get something else and after talking to the clerk he told me not to get the one I was going to get and to try the Lean Shakes. The shakes and the Quest Protein Bars are awesome.

right now even the total lean makes me sick. I have tried unflavored powder it tastes like fleishmans yeast. all the others are too sweet tasting right now to me. so I have been trying to eat more Protein but it will not be enough since my doc requires me to have 80+ a day

I even bought a couple bottles of the grape frost Isopure and those have a nasty taste. I know this is important but I don't know how to force myself to drink them

i am hoping this passes but I wasn't a big sweet eater to begin with and maybe that is why I can't stand these Protein Shakes that are way too sweet. I've even tried watering them down so to speak but no go. I get 3-4 ounces and can't do anymore. I'm just going to.have to try and eat my Protein instead for now. sure wish they would invent a protein chewable pill lol

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
