Congratulations!!! I was sleeved last week on Wednesday and had a hernia repaired. I am finding it still very tender standing and sitting. Otherwise all in all pretty good. Got in my 60g of protein and sipping away too

Good for you for getting 60gr of protein in. I don't know how you do it. I am having a very hard time with it. My pouch refuses the premier protein. I have other supplements I have tried but I can't get much in at this point.

Hey OrangeBlossom,

Im so over the Premier Protein shakes. I cant handle the sweetner anymore and i dont like stevia. I have bought this unflavoured protein for years. Easier on the belly too for me.

I mix 1 scoop with 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or Silk. Nutri bullet for a couple seconds. I got 60g before 5pm today.

Can you mask the whey protein in soup or something else? Do you have other protein besides premier? I . Best I've found so far is Bulk Barn's whey protein - they have vanilla and chocolate and you can buy it in small quantities to see if you like or can tolerate it. Good luck!!

I have a variety of sample packages. Anything Dairy like I can't get down I am better with fruit flavours but it still is challenging.
