Guest guest Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Thanks Lawanda and everyone else for their great advice on trying things with the protein. I found one flavor of isopure that I can manage to get down although it takes me quite awhile. I am also going to order some sample through vitalady. I sure appreciate all the help and will probably have a lot more questions as the weeks go on. post of 6-9-05 Dr. Legha S San Francisco 31 lbs down In gastric-bypass-support-kaiser-patients , LaWanda Ezell wrote: > Another thing about getting the protein shakes down, that I have seen on > another list to which I belong, is that some like to mix about a teaspoon > of instant sugar free pudding in with their shakes.
