I was having the same problem with protien intake. My doctor told me about a drink punch flavored called amino2222 i mix it with sugar free kool aide and it does not taste bad. Amino 2222 is fruit punch flavored. It has 20 grams of protien per serving and all kinds of amino acids. Those protein drinks tasted so bad to me also. I buy it at GNC. It is only eleven dollars. hope this helps

Hi Yvonne, I know eating foods may taste nasty but you have to get it in some how. I get my proteins from my foods, I focus on only high protein meats. The way I cook them is in the crock pot until they are so tender a baby can eat it. I also boil a lot of my meats, I even have used my juicer in the beginning months when I couldn't chew or keep foods down. I would drink my food this way. it looks gross but tasted alright. also stay away from breads, pasta, potatoes, sweets, these things will keep you into plateaus and slow wt loss. drink your 64oz water, what I do is get a soda bottle and fill it with water 20oz. 3 1/2 times. one in the morning, noon, and evening, and the 1/2 just before bed. It's amazing I thought I couldn't do it either, so far I have loss 132 lbs since 12/6/02 and have lots more to go. Please don't give up. you can do this. There's only four things you needs to do. 1. high protein meats 2. 64 oz water 3. exercise 4. take your vitamins. try to focus on these 4 things. take care and e-mail me anytime**Hugs**

please try to get your protein in. It is not just to help you lose weight faster. It does that but it is primarily to keep your body from eating its own muscle. Every organ in our body is made from protein and is a muscle. Your heart is the primary muscle. You do not want to damage your muscle.
