Not everyone tolerates whey very well. For some (me included) it can give me terrible gas and diarrea. Might fiddle with other sources of Protein including soy and egg whites.

Also, your tummy might not have liked all that protein all at once. If it keeps up, maybe try diluting it more or drinking Water with it and drinking slowly.

THANKS AGAIN.

EAS also makes meal replacement shake that is just as good called Myoplex Carb Sense. Get the Chocolate and Vanilla... Post surgery, I would mix whey into my shake to keep my daily protein goal of 100 grams.

I have had the myoplex and yes, it is good. I tried the powder again today and drank it alot slower and it helped. I still felt a little sick, but did not throw up. Thank you very much for your reply. I know I will have alot of questions coming up.

thanks again.

Maybe it is brand related or maybe it is type of Protein related. When it comes to protein products you really have to keep trying different types and brands until you know what works for you.

Those shooters (New Whey) do the same thing to me. I can get it down but I can't keep it down. Of course, that's the lowest quality protein (not flavor, protein) product on the market today.
