Ugh these protein shakes

They seem to go through me. Even tried making with lactaid milk today. Using whey. Tomorrow I get powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth delivered. I hope that is good?

Anyone else like this? I'm 13 days out.

Have you tried Premier Protein Shakes pre made? I had the trouble you are having before my surgery and then switched to the Premier and things went ok. Hope you feel better soon. Have you tried different flavors? Wish I could help more. Just hang in there.

"liquid in, liquid out" is common if you are still on clear/full liquids. I agree with above posts that it might be worth trying a different brand than you have been using... but honestly, I had about 5 days of that issue when I started really adding the Protein drinks- but wasn't yet consuming any solids. I think it just happens sometimes when there aren't any solids to add any bulk.

Have you tried the Isopure Zero Carb Protein drinks? They have 40 grams of protein per bottle and are fairly easy. No blending. I'm a month away from surgery and wanted to try different types of Protein Drinks.

I also suggest trying a different brand. Something is not agreeing with your belly.

However, do not let this condition go on too long. Diarrhea can lead to dehydration VERY easily and quickly. Dehydration is nasty stuff.

Maybe a call to your surgeon's office just for a recommendation and to keep them up to date about with your condition and progress. Can't hurt. I'm sure your experience is nothing new to your surgeon. (at least I hope you were not his first patient) :)

Feel better and let us know how you're doing.

The isopure drinks are good. No problems. Hoping the chicken broth from unjury will be good. Am I supposed to not drink 30 min before and after a protein drink?

I just got the chicken broth the other day. Awesome stuff

I just asked my NUT this question and the answer is no. You can drink right up to the shake and right after.
