6 months out and I still have to supplement with protein shakes

I am 2 weeks post op and eating, cheese chicken and eggs with no problem. But I am not sure how to start getting in enough Protein. Does anyone have any suggestions? I hv tried the unflavored protein in Water and it is soooo gross!! Please help.

I mix the unflavored with sugar free crystal light (actually I get Wyler's as I buy it at Dollar General for a dollar a box) and mix with my water. Also, I get sugar free Swiss Miss Hot chocolate, and mix that with water and unflavored protein, but you have to make sure your water isn't over 130 degree's. I measure the heat if I can put my finger in it.. By mixing with water you get your water intake and it still counts even if it is flavored, I actually don't drink water any other way. With Hot Chocolate you are getting a little more protein as there is powdered milk in it.

Thanks so much!!!

I mix unflavored Isopure powder into my drinks either with crystal light or hot tea. I also use New whey to supplement with. I use that because I can take 1oz shots for about 11 grams Protein each. You can find those at wal mart. In flavors like grape, fruit punch, orange.

I'm 8 months out and I still need Protein shakes

I drink Premier Protein from costco 30 grams of protein

I thought that the new whey shots weren't allowed?

I do one Protein shake (usually in the morning) with 8 oz of milk, and that usually adds up to about 30 g of protein, then one container of Fage 0% plain with some sugar free syrup mixed in which is 18 grams. That makes 48 grams total and the rest is easy to get in with your meals.

I also use the Premiere Protein from costco. I mix the vanilla with some Caramel sugar free syrup by Torani..it is awesome!! Taste like a milk shake from McDonald's...I also try to eat Greek yogurt each morning for Breakfast...I get the rest from foods throught the day....

I like nectar unflavored (powdered), I make up about 60g in the morning put it in the fridge, Protein tastes better cold , using this recipe: 1/2 cup milk 1 1/2 cups Water, 4 Tbsp No Sugar added Nesquick, or I use 2 cups water and crystal lite (any flavor). I eat breakfast lunch and dinner, and drink my shakes for a snack between meals.

Today I had peanutbutter toast (breakfast 7g protein), 8oz Protein shake (snack 30g premade protein shake), 4 slices of turkey lunchmeat and an orange (lunch 8g protein), 8oz protein (snack 30g premade protein shake), and dinner with the family serving porkchop (deck of cards in size), broccoli 1/2 cup and a couple of bites of plain wheat rice (dinner 10g protein). So today I got about 85g protein.

My surgeons office actually recommends the New Whey shots.

There is a protein that has no flavor... It's 100% Soy isolate Protein... It honestly has no taste or smell... Someone said her surgeon said she needed whey. But I can't handle the whey.

You can get it at GNC. 25g of protein in 1 scoop
