What do you do when you can't stand Protein Shakes and sugar free anything.... so afraid this won't work.

Find something that you can stand. There are so many different brands of Protein these days it's crazy. Experiment and find what you like. I find it hard to believe that you dislike **ALL** Proteins and **ALL** sugar free stuff.

I literally do not like anything SF, so it is possible. My surgery is coming up and I have a plan to use honey, only slight amount, as I don't like really sweet drinks. I will transition to a small amount of frozen fruit.

You can do it with some small tweaks. Best wishes!

I would not suggest using a sugar substitute that is really just sugar by another name (it may slow down progress)

There are a plethora of non sugar substitutes, made from plants, fruits and vegetables, or in a lab. Try one until it fits.

The other viable choice is no sugar substitutes at all. You're sweet enough 🌈

Safe Journey!

I was not a big Protein Shake lover. And everyone seems to be stuck on Premier Protein, which I was not a big fan of. I only really like 2 flavors of premier Protein, the caramel and the strawberry. I was advised to go online and order some samples of different kinds and try them out. I also went to the local GNC and Vitamine Shop and picked out some sample packs to try out. It's usually not very expensive to purchase sample packs ($5 or less) and gives you the opportunity to try out some different brands and flavors, to find some you like. I also researched different additives that I may be able to add to make the shakes more palatable without over-sweetening. Adding some low carb low sugar, non-seed fruit is a big help. this may work for you, just keep in mind to review your carbs and sugar grams additives may add to the shake you select.

      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! 😞
