Have any of you experienced this? I have with only clear protein (juice like) protein. I had it with my sleeve and now my rny but only post-op. Pre-op it left no film.

i tried brushing my teeth and using mouthwash etc but nothing seems to take the film away. When I move my tongue around I can feel it and then I just spit it out.

I had a similar experience with unflavored protein powder something about mixing one of the non lemonade ( this makes a bad aftertaste ) propell flavor sticks took it away , that may work for you.

Yea I added crystal light to it and it still happened. Just weird

i won’t stop drinking it though lol. I prefer it over the shakes

For me, I thought Isopure was horrible for this. UGH! I didn't find it as bad with the other, less concentrated, protein waters.

I prefer the clear over the protein shakes too! I don't have a film,but it takes a while for me to get it down and the ice i put in it thins it out as it starts to melt- maybe that helps?? I am traveling right now and at the airport I tried a Fairlife shake. 26G protein, 20 carbs and, 150 calories. I know most people would go crazy over that number of carbs- but didn't have a better option. OMG that strawberry and banana protein shake was good!!! It was the best one that I have tasted hands down.

I've never seen the Fairlife shakes. Where did you find them?

I also usually use clear protein waters diluted with both ice and some extra water. They are just overbearingly sweet.
