Then drink non-dairy shakes. Like soy isolate protein powder or egg white protein powder, mixed with water, soy milk or almond milk.

You can use water or soy if it's a lactose thing. I drank mine with water for a little while. It doesn't change the taste that much.

Cannot have whey isolate or cannot have those with milk as the base?

Them I would try flax or almond milk, water, black coffee or tea as your base. I have never put cows milk in any protein shake. Syntrax Nectar and Isopure both dissolve quickly in water and are tasty, IMO.

I had the same problem!!! I tried so many different ones until I found syntrax nectar. They have fruity flavors that you can mix with water so they aren't thick and they're also lactose free. They're really good too!
