Protein Ideas? HELP! 2 weeks post

[nanno90 0]

I've tried everything and it's all making me sick! Protein Shakes, Protein gels, Greek yogurt, milk, Peanut Butter, eggs? ??? it's all so nasty! I don't know how I'm going to do this!

How are you at getting fluids in? You might be able to dilute the Protein shakes (or the clear Isopure Protein drinks) with something you find more palatable, enough to be able to get it down. I would sometimes try to get my protein really concentrated so there wouldn't be so much of it, but that just made it nasty.

2 weeks is still really early, so don't despair! Just keep trying to find things that you can tolerate that you can use to dilute/hide the taste of your protein sources that you don't like as much.

Is there a Soup that you like? Blended up/thinned cream Soups were a go-to for me during full liquids.

I was also really intolerant of protein-shake taste during this stage and had to doctor them up with sugar free pudding/syrup/hot chocolate mix to get them down, but now (4 months out) I am back to tolerating Protein powder as well as I did before surgery, so some of this yucky feeling will go away with time!

I'm only out 2 or so weeks too, but these have saved me so far, Unflavored GENEPRO - It's only 1T and gives 30 grams of Protein, and I mix it into Jello, chicken broth or creamed Soups. I also do Syntrax's nectar and Matrix brand Protein Powder drinks...I found one that I absolutely LOVE, Matrix Mint chocolate Chip Cookie. It tastes like a shamrock shake, and I could drink this every day w/o issues! I'm sure other's will have great ideas too, Good luck!
