Tomarrow I start with the Protein shakes but I keep hearing I'm going to be vomiting from reaction of the shake. Did anyone experience this?

I've never had any adverse reactions to any of the protein drinks. I've probably tried at least a dozen (sometimes have to grab one from a gas station because warm protein drinks = ewwwww). I've never gotten nauseous either. I started using them a year ago for breakfast on recommendation of my nutritionist. I don't like eggs and she wanted me getting protein in the morning so it seemed like a good alternative.

I never experienced vomiting from consuming Protein shakes. From my discussion with many who took Protein Shakes before and after surgery, vomiting is not a common problem.

For me after surgery, my taste buds change as it does for many. Things that I could tolerate before tasted awful after surgery. So it is important to experiment until you find a shake you can tolerate.

I've been drinking shakes every day for over a year. Sometimes two a day. I have never gotten sick from them, and I've tried several kinds. Sometimes I encounter one I don't really like, or it doesn't sit well, but it's never made me physically sick.

My doctor and nutritionist said Clear liquids for 3 weeks.

My surgery was Monday and the shakes are a big problem. They are too thick. Even tried the powdered one with Water. I gag and hack foam every time I try to down some. I'm ready to eat a scrambled egg.

I am four days out and I have been drinking clear Protein drinks. I tried a Premier Protein yesterday and it made my stomach hurt. I diluted it by half and tolerated it much better but still am sticking to clear protein for a couple more days. I say listen to your body, if it hurts, don't drink the shakes and stick to clear protein. Good luck!
