day 2 of liquid diet, protein shake is causing bubble guts!



Recommended Posts

Are you lactose intolerant? And/or is there lactose in the shake? Just wondering if there was anything special that might be bugging you. I seem to get more sensitive the older I get. Most of the whey Protein isolate is fine, but the casein and milk powder give me cranky stomach.

@@bitingcat I am lactose intolerant but I usually can get a way with a glass of milk here and there and it not too much of a problem....but this is the worst I feel nauseated and my stomach is all cramped up....if it doesn't go away after this weekend I'm going to call my surgeon and ask for an alternative.

Any luck finding a better shake? I'm post-op now, too and glad I'm not adding lactose to the grumbly mix. I'm drinking a lot of bone broth and minty herb tea, taking a probiotic, and limiting my Protein powder to whey Protein isolate. Also keeping the Gas-x and Maalox nearby.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
