Protein Drinks
I had my Lap Band exactly one week today.
Just by giving up sodas, I lost 13 lbs. pre op. I go for my 2 week check up next Thursday, the 12th of November.
I bought a box of (12) New Whey protein drinks (42 grams) yesterday from GNC plus 2 singles to get me thru til next payday...I tried to drink one and it was almost like drinking orange syrup. I put it in the fridge thinking it might taste better cold...this morning, I tried to down just a little over an ounce and started gagging.
Can I mix it w/something to make it taste better? I'm trying to find the receipt thinking I may take it back and exchange it for something else...
In another thread, someone mentioned something about one that taste like Nesquik...I could handle that, I think.
Also, I have been craving TB pintos and cheese, cottage cheese and a soft boiled egg and gave into my craving each time, but, following the rules as far as making it mushy and eating slow. I hope that is alright.
Please advise.

I have tried many a protein mixes and drinks and my favorite is Max Protein. I like the Chocolate the best and to me it tastes like Nesquick. I can actually drink it every morning and not get sick of it. The only problem for me is though, not everyone carries it. I went to the GNC in Philadelphia on Cottman and Castor cause they are the only GNC I found that carries it. I know you could probably buy it online too. Good Luck!
