Question:
Protien supplements make me very full and bloated.

I am 3 weeks post RNY and need 75-90 Gm protien daily. I'm on full liguids till 5 weeks post op. Protien supplements almost make me nauseated. What to do?    — siberiancat (posted on April 13, 2009)

Hi. I'm just wondering, are you making your protein shakes with water or milk? I find that making the protein shakes with water instead of milk helps so I don't feel as bloated and the shake doesn't make me feel as full. Good luck.

I use the Nector that mixes in water it is good. The other kind, I will mix in milk because it tastes better. Sheryl W.

When I made mine with milk I could not even drink an 8oz shake over an hour. I started using juice to make it with and I do really well now. The Orange,Peach Mango (ready to drink) is really good and I found a new 1/2 the sugar OJ also. I make smoothies - juice ice and a scoop of protein in the blender - and all the girls in my office ask me to make them one too.
