ANOTHER PROTEIN PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!

I TRIED THE NECTAR TEA THIS WEEKEND. I COULDN'T EVEN TAKE two SIPS OF IT. I AM PRE-OP. IM TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL WORK WITH ME FOR WHEN IM POST OP (FEB 22ND) I CANT FIND A PROTEIN DRINK/POWDER I CAN GET DOWN WITH OUT GAGGING AND MAKING ME WANT TO THROW UP! I HAVE TESTED SOOOO MANY OF THEM. I CAN ALWAYS SEEM TO TASTE THAT "VITAMIN/PROTEIN " TASTE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. MY DATE IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! THE PRE MIXED SHAKES AND THE PROTEIN POWDER I JUST DO THINK I CAN GET THEM DOWN. I KNOW THAT'S BAD. IM SURE SOMEONE OUT THERE WILL FLAME AT ME. I HAVE RECEIVED A LOT OF SAMPLES IN THE MAIL OF DIFFERENT POWDERS. MIXING THEM WITH DIFFERENT THINGS. I HAVE TRIED THEM AND END UP GAGGING. WHEN IM IN THE LIQUID STAGE THERE REALLY ISN'T MUCH (FOOD OPTIONS) OUT THERE AS PROTEIN INTAKE I CAN HAVE IS THERE? I JUST DON'T KNOW.

Don't stress over it... Your tastes change after surgery. I might have a change of heart once your post-op about some of the protein you have tried. don't give up.. you will find something you can take. but like I said i wouldn't stress over it yet

Cheryl, I enjoy the GNC Whey protein powders mixed with soy milk. They dissolve easy and don't taste chalky. I also like the Atkins in the can. Good luck finding one you enjoy. Carly

Cheryl-- a good friend of mine on this board told me about a website called bariatriceating.com and it has a fruity whey protein that is 26g per cup and taste like jolly rancher candy and grape kool aid. And it is on sale right now too! $16.95 for a big bottle. Also, there is tasteless protein powder that you can put in your water, soup or anything else that it can dissolve in....so go take a look!!! Best wishes to you! You will do great gurl!!!! Finda Nessy

hi! do you know which kind it was? My mom and I are doing Pat's Diet powder crap, and im tired of it.. I think I need a fruit one that I can mix here @ work. ;) Thanks!

go to bariatriceating.com and look under protein shakes or the clearance and you should see it for $16.95!!!! its a steal and it taste good! Finda Nessy

i had the same problem coz protein drinks are all too gross.. but somebody told me about isopure i think it taste alot better than any other, specially the chocolate.. it has 55 grams of protein no sugar and 3 grams carb.

i hate most of them too... nectar fuzzy navel isnt that bad, but i put it in a sports bottle so i dont smell it when i drink it. i also like carb solutions in a can. they have chocolate and vanilla, taste kinda like really thin pudding.

Have you tried Unjury, you mix it with FF milk and it taste like a milk shake. It is the only one I will drink beside fuzzy navel nectar. The trick is to let it sit for about five minutes after mixing to let it dissolve real good then it is much better.

I bought the GNC Whey protein in chocolate. I mix it with 8 oz of 1% milk and sugar free nesquick...quite tasty. I just bought a new product, I haven't tried it yet, but here's the link to it http://www.protica.com/profectlandingWLS1.htm. It has 25 g of protein per vile. I'll let you know after I try it.
