Hi Kym,
I am sorry you are having troubles.. wish I could help somehow.. unfortunately since I am still pre-op I do not know much to tell you except what my surgeon has in his book..
It says that if you can not handle the lactose in the milk try either lactaid drops to help in digesting the lactose.. OR Lactaid milk OR Dairy ease tablets with your milk.
Maybe you can try another form of protien powder, they say that there is one called 100% pure whey that doesnt have a flavor or you can buy a flavor to mix in water rather than milk.. or a fruit flavor like nectar to mix in sugarfree juices..??
I am sorry, I can not tell you what works because I havent been there yet but these are things I have made notes of from others talking about this problem as well for when I am postop.
I sincerely wish you the best.. congratulations on your weightloss so far, it is wonderful.. be safe and take good care of yourself.
