Can't do anymore protein!

I'm 9 days post op. I've noticed I tend to not drink my 2 ounces of protein because I feel full for 2 to 3 hours after. I would rather sip water all day. I've only been getting about 4 to 6 oz of protein a day so I can drink water. I feel like I'm always thirsty

Try the Isopure clear protein drinks. I have never tried them and from what I have read here you either love them or hate them. You can get them at Vitamin Shop, they are expensive but you need some protein. Hydration is crucial at first but soon enough you will have to increase your protein.

I've tried every flavor and they are disgusting. I've tried unflavored protein and gag.

Syntrax Nectars mixed with Water are much lighter and less filling than the usual Protein drinks. They come in a variety of flavors.

I got through that phase with the Syntrax Nectars mixed with Crystal Lite Lemonade.

I'll look into syntrax. I'm fine with the taste of my protein but they are just so heavy and I worry about dehydration last Tuesday I was almost admitted back into the hospital.

I love Syntrax Matrix with Water and sweetened almond milk (4 ozs each). The flavors are good and they aren't thick like many of the Protein shakes I've tried. And, they have lots of protein.

i was the same but then i got premier Protein and it taste better and can drink them easier they have 30 grams of protein and it will help. i didn't like the isopure drinks earthier they have a nasty after taste.

good luck

Costco Premiere Protein shakes taste pretty good. 11oz 30g protein.

Try Isopure, and mix it with something. I have used Crystal Light, G2, and Iced Tea. I cut it in half, so 1/2 a bottle, or 10oz of Isopure, with 10oz mixer. 20g of protein, and 20oz fluids!! I sip it all day, adding ice as I go. I have only tried Grape Frost, and Iced Tea Lemon.

I have premier protein but they are way to sweet

I have premier protein but they are way to sweet

The reason I'm here is that there is no such thing as "to sweet". Lol

I was able to use ProtiDiet chicken and tomato soups during my clear and full liquid phases and they really helped me get my protein. I was tired of sweet protein all the time so the savory helped.

New whey liquid protein at walmart has been easy for me. 42 grams of protein in only 3.8 oz. I split one. Half in morning and second half at lunch.
