I saw awhile ago someone said they use a power they mix with water that is tasteless, a protein powder I mean. Which one is this and who has tried it and is it REALLY tasteless? And also, where can you find it? I use Cabot whey protein powder (I live the next town over from Cabot) and I like it, but I need more choices. If it has a aftertaste like that Protein20 then no way.

Also, any recommendations on new shakes? I've heard the ones from bariatricpal were good. I use premier protein now, it's getting old. No slimfast, Atkins, or that TERRIBLE advatedge, gross. I do have some Pure Protein I like, but lately the froth on the shakes I make make me feel sick (6 weeks out) I don't know why.

Thanks!

The unflavored protien are just that, unflavored. But they still have a taste and change whatever you put them in.

I like Unjury reg chocolate whey protien powder. I mix it with almond milk, not so creamy/heavy as mixing with milk, less calories too. Skim milk has 90 calories/8oz and almond milk has 30 calories/8oz.

There is also a 50/50 almond milk and coconut milk combo I like, tastes like an almond joy when mixed with chocolate protien powder. ?

You might want to check other threads for suggestions. Unjury was one of the first ones I tried and I stuck with it bc it tastes good, has no chalky aftertaste, and doesn't make frothy bubbles when I shake it up in my blender bottle.

unjury has an unflavored powder, it came in my sample kit but I have not tried it yet

I have yet to find an unflavored rotein powder that is completely tasteless. Sorry.

Someone said GenePro. I'm taking the risk and trying it. I'll try almond milk too, good idea! I use fairlife milk, it has 80 calories per 8 oz. And 13 grams of protein vs the typical 8? Less carbs and sugar and lactose free too. At this point I'm so incredibly nauseous it's hard to eat or drink anything that's kind of why I asked (and I'm too lazy to read my original post). I'm struggling with my water and protein and all that is stalling my weight loss! This came out of nowhere, I was fine for almost 5 weeks! Ugh. I just can't do my usual Cabot right now and even shakes and yogurt are bothering my stomach.

I’m now 2 weeks out. I came out of surgery completely unable to tolerate dairy in any form. Prior to the sleeve I was very mildly lactose intolerant. Meaning, if I ate ice cream or drank a glass of milk, I’d get gassy, bloated or perhaps have a bowel cleanse (if I ate the whole pint of Ben and Jerry’s). Now, dairy of any sort; yogurt, whey shakes; ricotta, is a NIGHTMARE.
Not complaining. It eliminates a whole bunch of bad choices from my old life. But I never would have believed it if it hadn’t happened to me.

Gas pills are my life, not from dairy though, day 2 on the burping is UNREAL, plus the initial pressure was annoying. The fairlife milk is lactose free so that's a plus. After my liquid phase was over I decided to stay gluten free because gluten gives me headaches (literally) and makes pain flair up in my hands. No gluten- no pain. And it's not like it's practical for a bariatric person to eat bread and pasta so it's easy. The changes are awesome! Ben and jerry's....The factory is 30 miles away from my house! If you worked there I think you got 5 (yes, FIVE!) free pints A DAY! nope!

And oooh I love Cabot cheese, I guess it's made there by happy Green State cows.

I’m actually happy my body completely rejects milk now because knowing about the free B&J benefit might cause my to move there, get a job at the factory and try to fulfill my protein requirements with Cherry Garcia!!
