Nausea with Premier protein



Recommended Posts

I have been drinking Premier Protein shakes since my surgery on 10/28. They have recently started causing really bad nausea. Anyone have any suggestions on alternatives?

The Premier Protein started making me sick too. I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (van or choc) with unsweetened almond milk and PB2 powder.

I went to GNC tonight to go check out other Protein choices. I like premier but am getting tired of it real quick. My wife showed me Isopure it's more like a Gatorade then a milky substance like the premier. I'm going to try it tomorrow I'll report back good thing is that it has 40g of protein so two of those a day and bam daily intake met.

I use the Isopure no carbs. I like them but I only use the teas & coconut flavors.

Well just about finished my first Isopure while I wouldn't say it's great tasting I wouldn't say it's bad. It taste like Water downed diet Gatorade. But it beats the milky Protein Drinks that I have gotten old of quick. I tried icy orange. I bought three other flavors to try. 40grams of Protein 160 cal 1 serving isn't that bad I don't think I think it's something I will keep drinking to change it up. post-265643-14470338323264_thumb.jpg post-265643-14470338453161_thumb.jpg

I have developed a sensitivity to both Preimier and Protein Water.< /p>

Severe cramping so much that Dr. put me on real food at week one. I am eating a lot of turkey and chicken meatballs (ground meat). They are tender and have had no issue. I had to go on the pre surgery twice because i had to cancel the first scheduled surgery due to death in family....i think it built up in my system.

Tried today to have a premier today just to see if i could since haven't had it in several weeks and i bought a lot. Same story....cramping

I haven't had problems with unjury so far. Premier Protein is a Protein concentrate- meaning you are only absorbing about 12g of the protein in each shake, not the entire 30g. Unjury is a pure protein isolate, so you are absorbing every gram of protein in each scoop. I have the unflavored and mix it with EVERYTHING (cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, Soups, smoothies, etc)

I'm willing to try anything right now. Going back to the surgeon tomorrow for my check up. She sells Unjury out of her office.

All of them made me extremely nauseous. Premier, Unjury, Isopure, shakes, powders, it just instantly triggers gagging. I ended up living on Fairlife fat free milk (added Protein Calcium, sugar and lactose filtered out) I mixed with sugar free strawberry Syrup or diet hot cocoa mix for variety, and I used it almost exclusively for about two months until I could start eating solids to get my protein.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
