Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has any idea if there is a supplement we can take in lieu of the shakes. They're making me sick and I cannot stand the disgusting protein powder. I am 1 week and a few days out and I'm struggling to get the protein in. I just can't take the taste of the shakes anymore.

The shakes sort of *are* a supplement. Are you on soft or pureed food yet? If so, you might be able to do Yasso bars (frozen greek yogurt), pureed/finely blended soup, potatoes, beans, bunch of protieny stuff.....Call your dietician on Monday and get some suggestions...they're great at problem solving.

At a week out I was having greek yogurt and blended lenti soup for protein. Hummus too. Some of this depends on what you're allowed to have. Bone broth is another option.

Have you tried protein water? I prefer the protein20 but there is also premier protein water but I found that terribly sweet.
