Everytime I sip on protein now



Recommended Posts

It is so hard to get these shakes down ... I'm having a heck of a time. The taste and smell gag me. I'm

Yup I've also become lacrosse or milk Protein intolerant. Sipping a Protein shake made it sound like fireworks going off inside. I had a small Greek yogurt today and promptly had my my first dumping experience. On the upside I had not been for 6 days so it cleared me out lol.

Tried a tiny bit of cheese melted in my refried Beans and again no good. So yip looks like I have to give up all things dairy for a while. Which I'm gutted about as I was relying on them to get me through!

I had the same problem after surgery! I suffered from lactose intolerance as a kid, and it came back full force after my surgery. Every Protein drink/powder seemed to make me nauseous, and anything with lactose gave me dumping syndrome.

I use "Fairlife Milk." It is an ultra-filtered milk that removes lactose AND most excess sugar. Then, it is fortified with additional Protein and Calcium. A protein shake netted me 30g of protein, but with fairlife I could still get to 18g with the same amount, so it helped me get closer to my protein goal.

Best part is, I can add a little PB2, sugar free strawberry Syrup, sugar free chocolate syrup, or diet hot cocoa mix depending on how I feel.

I'll be six weeks out tomorrow, and it's still my main source of protein.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
