I had my Gastric Bypass surgery on January 15, 2014, and I had a lot of bumps to deal with, first, because I had a Lapband in April 15, 2013, and then had it removed in December 2013, due to complications, so then jumped to Gastric Bypass because of Lapband I had scare tissue which made any kind of liquid drinking very difficult so then I was back in the hospital for another surgery to remove scare tissue. There several trips that landed me in the hospital and I had to stay there for five to six days for dehydration and not eating as well, but now knock on wood I am doing a lot better just that no matter how I mix the protein drink with or milk I can't get it down it just makes me sick to my stomach any suggestions on how I can drink 60 grams of protein a day, thanks in advance:)

If you cant keep protein shakes down, is it possible you're drinking too fast? I drink a 1oz shot glass every 15 minutes or so and even that feels too fast sometimes. Also make sure your shake is fewer than 6 grams of sugar per serving. Other ways you can drink your protein is to blend dannon light n fit GREEK yogurt with water. Or, GNC makes a fruity protein drink called IsoPure. I'm in no way an expert but when I read you cant keep anything down, I felt sad for you. I really hope you can find a solution.
