Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Hey now! I had to comment in defense of carnation instant breakfast. It may not be sugar free, but it has NEVER caused me to dump and I drink it every day. It was the only protein drink I could tolerate (and when I add it to two cups of Braum's FF milk its 29 grams of protein). It has not slowed my weight loss and it certainly has not made me gain (I havent had a gain since my surgery last May) or caused me any kind of problem. I have even drank the full sugar kind (which has 20 grams of sugar) and never had a problem. I am sorry you have been lactose intolerant since your surgery but dont assume that everyone is. The sugar in milk doesnt cause most people any trouble. ~ami~ LAP RNY 5-13-03 261/177.5/130 In a message dated 2/15/2004 1:59:50 PM Central Standard Time, rayehawk@... writes: I'm glad to see that you won't be doing CIB (and I don't know anything about the boycott), because CIB is full of sugar. Even the No Sugar Added version. It's *not* sugar free*. It's pwd. milk, which is full of sugar (lactose, a milk sugar), and can cause you all kinds of problems. If you're lactose intolerant (I am extremely so since surgery) It'll make you sick; if not, it can raise your dumping threshold, slow weight loss, make you gain. BAD JUJU! (milk is evil, IMNHO!)

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 I drink 3 glasses of non fat milk every day. I have had faster than normal weight loss and no dumping episodes (except for once with the dreaded watermelon) and I am certainly not gaining any weight. I would say it is more individual. Candi Re: A Protein Idea...let me know what you think! > There is Sugar free CIB.....these are pretty good. Never thought of mixing them in with a protein shake...will have to try that...sherri > Re: A Protein Idea...let me know what you think! > > > HI BOB:ummm have you tried carnation instant breakfast. I don't want to get annoying, but there's a reason why I won't use Nestle products. Go to http://www.babymilkaction.org if you'd like to find out why. It's not well-known in this country, but there is a world-wide boycott against Nestle for its unethical practices in third-world countries regarding baby formula. All I can say is, a dollar to Nestle is a dollar to a badly unethical company. Dep Hawkridge in Washington State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 I agree AMI. Carnation was the only protein drink I could stomach as well. If I had developed a lactose intolerance I would have been in big trouble. In fact my last set of labs came back so well they dropped off one of my calcium supplements. That made me happy. I want to eat healthy and get all of the vitamins and nutients I need from the food I consume. Maybe one day. Candi Re: Milk, CIB, etc . . . Hey now!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 I honestly think it was not the watermelon but rather how fast I ate it. I have had it since then with no problem.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 first of all, you need to take small bites, and chew very thoroughly, do not rush, and be careful not to swallow too fast. It is very simple, everything takes time, more time than you had before. And should someone complain about how long you chew, tell the to talk to the hand, because it is your body. Take care...Saundra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
