Please Help!

Can I get an AMEN for the New Whey Protein Bullets.  I mixed 2 a day with water and ice and sipped on them all day long.  Still use them, sometimes a half and sometimes a whole one, every day.  It just boosts my protein over the top.

Try adding flavored powder (like Cookies and Cream) to sugar free vanilla pudding or sugar free chocolate pudding.

I also use Lean Dessert, Syntha 6 and Champion Nutrition Protein Stack (all of these brands can be found at a local GNC or ordered online) mixed with water and sugar free flavoring or sugar free hazelnut coffee flavoring (International Delight or Coffeemate).  I love my shakes - they are my dessert.  I have a couple a day to supplement my protein.

Keep trying til you find something you can use.  You have to get your protein in.

Good Luck!!!

The only type of protein drink I can drink is the Isopure ready to drink drinks. They are sort of like koolaid in a bottle. They are available at GNC. Try the grape. Straight from the bottle is too strong, so I water it down, or add some crystal light to it. I hate powder drinks so Isopure makes it 100% easier to get protein in.

Hi Deb!  Don't worry bout the protein so much at this stage... everything tasted and smelled awful to me at your stage!  However do stay hydrated and make sure you get 64 oz fluid in a day at least.  This will also take a bit of ramping up...  Some of the nectar powders are not so bad.  Although I couldn't stand the bullets I did use them a bit early on.  I have heard they are more palatable mixed with crystal light, but I couldn't stand the taste of that either early on...  I did "sort of" like the ready to drink Isopure... but my fav flav was the blue raspberry.  Once I got past the "everything gags me" phase, I use a protein shake (usually several) at least once a day and LOVE the Champion Pure Whey Stack Mocho-Cappucino mixed into my iced coffees (decaf).  You'll get there... baby steps...

Hi, Deb and Welcome to the board !

I see you have gotten some great advice and I can't add anything to what has been said.  Don't get frustrated - you are stilll healing and not expected to be able to get in all the protein and the water right now.  It will happen.  Just heal right now.

Welcome again and hope to get to know you better,
