I have been having a really hard time getting Protein in. I usually drink the Premier shakes but I cannot finish any of them. I tried putting unflavored whey protein podwer in my Jello and Soups but it tastes so bad to me. I recently tried making smoothies too but didn't work. I also noticed its giving me this nasty phlem after i eat it. I wonder if i should try rice protein or soy :/

any one else having this issue ?

I was having an issue too getting enough Protein. I just can't do a 4 oz shake. So I got these Protein Shots from a Vitamin shop. It has 42 grams of protein, 0 sugar, low carb, and it is only 3.8 oz. Still almost 4 oz but I'm getting triple the protein I was getting. Also, Unjury, makes a Protein Powder u add to what ever you want. I got the chicken noodle flavor and add to my broth.< /p>

I wish you well! Good luck!

What kind of protein is in the shots? I've been told that our bodies only absorb certain kinds of protein well, but these sound interesting.

How far along are you?

What brand of unflavoured whey did you use and how did you mix it in?

How did you make your smoothies and why did they work?

Phlem after you eat is typically a sign of eating/drinking too fast. Rice protein doesn't have enough nutrients. You could try soy but it needs to be soy isolates, not concentrate.

Here's my "cocktail" for Protein, since I hate the shakes. Get a large glass of cold Water, add however many drops of Water Enhancer to your liking, add the unflavored protein powder and mix well. If you want, add calcium citrate powder for your half-daily dose of Calcium (you will have to stir periodically to keep it mixed), then you can also add Benefiber to keep things "moving". I have this twice a day for the basics of protein, another for extra, if I feel I need it. There are so many flavors of drops out there, even some that aren't sweet. You can mix the flavors together for more variety. Good luck to you!

The Protein Shots are 42g of Protein , it's whey protein. They have fruit punch, sour apple, raspberry, orange. They are sugar free, 2 carbs, 180 calories.

The Unjury protein powder is added to hot broth or Soup. You can get unflavored or chocolate, strawberry, vanilla and chicken noodle. The are other items as well. Unjury.com.

I am on day 8 post op today. So I'm not on smoothies yet, still Clear Liquids. But u can add that unjury to smoothies. I have had no real complications other than nausea from too much Fluid too fast. Lost 8# in a week:-) first time ever for me.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
