Hi!

My doctor wants me drinking 3 of the Premier Protein shakes a day, however I’m not doing too great with them! For some reason they just feel too heavy for me to tolerate and I just feel super queasy after. Does anyone else have this experience with these particular shakes? Anything that helps?? I saw they make a juice version of the premier Protein which is a little less protein but I’m thinking it might be worth a try.

Hello I've seen that they have protein Water not necessarily Premier brand but you might want to try that, I've also diluted my Protein Drinks with water.

You can also dilute them with skim milk

diluting is a good idea. You could also use Water and count it toward your required Fluid intake, I LOVED Premier Protein shakes before surgery. I bought 4 cases on sale at costco. But..... after surgery, they were just too sweet. Tasted like chocolate syrup! So poor hubby took the unopened cases back.

They are considered a Meal Replacement - not just a Protein supplement, How long does your doctor want you to keep on 3 shakes a day?

I had that same problem. But my surgeon only allowed 4 ounces, as that counted as a meal. The Cookies & Cream flavor, for some reason, hurt my stomach. After that, I started making my own Protein Shakes using Isopure Protein Powder.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
