It's been 6 months since my gastric bypass, and I'm still having trouble passing my protein shake, my stomach doesn't rejects meat and the protein bars I really don't know what else to do to get my protein level!!

Nuts, beef jerky, cheese, yogurts, slices of avacado wrapped in deli sliced meats like turkey that's yum, beans with cheese melted, carnations instant breakfast shakes.

This is what I live on at the moment.

I would change to premier Protein ready made shakes. They each have 30 grams of protein, only 1 gram of sugar and 160 calories. I start my day everyday by having one which gets my protein kick started for the day.

I also eat a lot of cottage cheese which has fantastic protein and beef jerkey has a ton as well.

You will get sick down the road if you don't get your protein up to an acceptable level.

1gram of protein for every inch you are tall minimum everyday. I am guessing you know this. I would suggest talking to your nutritionist for suggestions as well.

I would NOT suggest using carnation instant breakfast drinks as a solution. There is only 5 grams of protein and 12 grams of carbohydrates. It is not a healthy option for post op WLS patients. Stick with a high protein low carb solution,

Your Protein requirement is a combination of the amount of protein you obtain from meals combined with the amount of protein from supplements. At 6 months your meal volume has increased to the point that if you consume high protein meals you can reduce the number of Protein shakes that you need to consume each day in order to meet your goals. I have provided some discussion in the following linked article.
