May I use, gene pro protein powder in cream based soup to get protein?

I also had an extreme aversion to sweet stuff post op until about 5 weeks out. I couldn't eat a SF popsicle or even a yogurt without it tasting sickenly sweet. Try finding Isopure liquid, the one in the glass bottle and dilute it down. I diluted it more than half. Everyone will tell you to get your Protein in but honestly I only got about 40gms in one Isopure the first 5 weeks and then the rest came from blended lentil Soups, blended cottage cheese and refried Beans with melted cheese. The first 4 weeks your taste can change drastically, its very common! Right now the most important thing you can do is keep sipping as much as possible all day long! Follow the guidelines as best as possible but remember everyones

transition time (4-6weeks) can be very different. You are going to do great just don't stress about it right now!

Thank you!

I'm struggling with the sweetness of protein shakes as well! My nurse said it's likely my taste buds have changed. Hope it works out for you.

Dilute it a bit. I have found that if I put it in my blender cup with some ice and let it dilute a bit then it is way less sweet.

Thx

Add more Water and ice and sip sip sip. I tried it with milk once and just couldn't drink it, so I only have it with water. When I first got home from hospital I drank one serving in a pint of water. Now I can have it in 6-8oz.

Good Luck!!

Just be careful on too much ice. Your new stomach may not be able to tolerate really cold fluids at first.

Thx, I will try your suggestions

I used the Unjury no flavor protein powder in French onion soup broth. It worked well. I took a little bit of the broth and whisked the protein powder in it before adding the warm broth. Just make sure the broth isn't too hot or the protein powder will clump.

Welcome to Ketosis! My doc told me about this when I told him about my aversion to sweets. Basically, ketones are released when your body starts burning fat. Buy a pack of Ketostix and you'll see.

Thx all!

I watered down today's protein shake a lot more than usual, and it's been more tolerable. Phew!

Cut the sweetness with some plain greek yogurt. I have opted to layering my Proteins when making my Protein shakes. Typically use powders that are around 20-30 grams. If they are on the 20 side, add some greek yogurt and some skim milk to make my shake bumping that protein as close to 40 grams I can get. Also try some of the sugar free flavorings. Toroni makes some great syrups, but also in your baking aisle at your local market.

Thank you, Istishia
