I'm 2 1/2 months. Sleeved 8/22. I'm averaging around 90. 1 Protein shake (30 g) the rest is real food.

I am almost six weeks out and I reach my goal of 70grams of protein daily. I have one Premier Protein shake and the rest comes from food.

I'm 4 days out and having trouble keeping it down. My plan was to have 2 premier Protein shakes a day, I can barely finish half on 1! I know that's not good but it's making feel like phlegmy and full really fast that I don't want anymore for the day. Any suggestions?

I eat 8 times in a day, spaced about 90 minutes apart (except for after the first "meal" of the morning when I leave 2.5 hours after to front load about 64 oz of water). It takes me all day (12-14 hours) of eating, waiting, drinking, waiting, eating again, etc. to get it all in.

Dilute them 1/2 and 1/2 with milk to cut the thickness and sweetness. You need the fluids anyways and milk adds even more protein. You may also try other brands that aren't so thick. Syntrax nectar makes many flavors you can mix with Water to get more of a koolaid consistency.
