After my living nightmare of MY experience with gastric bypass and after all my surgeries and complications, I cannot get even close to the protein I need. My tummy hates the shakes and I can only eat a very small portion. Don't know what to do because I've had enough go wrong already and I can handle any more problems. 7 surgeries and over a month in the hospital and almost dying, I need something to go right. Any suggestions??????

Have you tried a non-whey based Protein? I have a few friends who just could not handle the taste & smell of the whey, they had much better success with soy or pea protein. ALso, what about the Special K protein mixes for Water? Not a ton of protein, but more than nothing? I've also seen these drinks, I bought one but haven't opened it yet so I can't tell you how it tastes. But it has a lot of protein. http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/pro-nrg-flavored-hydrolyzed-protein-water-dietary-supplement-4-oz-bottle-berry/ID=prod6177392-product

Cytosport makes a Protein Water although, I believe it does contain whey. I got mine from The Vitamin Shoppe, and they have always been really helpful.

I'm so sorry you have had such a rough time, and hope things get better for you soon!

Oh bless your heart! I hope everything starts to look up for you soon! I have been using GENEPRO Protein. Some folks were talking about it here, and stated that is was really odorless and tasteless. I decided to try it because the horrible sweet tastes of all the shakes/protein I had been using was about to make me just stop protein altogether. That was the best choice I had every made! I sent the info to my NUT and surgeon since it's a fairly new product and both of them approved it. It truly is completely tasteless. I mix it in everything; decaf coffee, V8, diluted juice, yogurt. It has been a life-saver for me. You can order if from Amazon, which is were I got it or from the company website which is Musclegen Research.

Best of luck to you!

Oh, and the scoops are very small and the powder is very fine, so it's easy to mix with very small portions.

I have tried the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury which I can handle only the choc one. I think I will try ithe genpro that Carol was talking about that sounds good
