Cant drink it with water it's uber gross but if it's absolutely imperative then I guess I can.

i use water, but i also use the nectar powders that are more fruit base & zero carbs.

I am on the ready made protien, they are still hard for me to digest even being five weeks out today.

OMG i'm going to vomit! I hate to think about those disgusting things.

While I was losing weight, my food plan limited carbs to 40 grams a day, protein to 70 grams a day and calories between 600 and 800 a day.  I never used milk with my protein drinks since I wanted to follow my surgeon guidelines to lose weight as quickly as possible.  

Eventually you will get tired of a limited diet, so you might as well try to lose as quickly as possible to get to goal.  Then while in maintenance, you can add calories and carbs.  That worked well for me.  

Depends on if I'm running over or under on carbs, and taste (some brands of protein powder taste way too sweet when mixed with milk). If you mix with water it counts towards fluids intake, mix with milk it adds to protein intake (and carb intake)-at your stage it's really crucial to get in protein and fluids, so tough call. Personally, I'd say mix with milk if it tastes better to you but just take the added carbs into account. I'll let some vet chime in....but congrats on 49lbs lost!! Keep rocking the sleeve!

 I use Unsweetend Almond Milk, 35 calories and 1 gram of carbs! 

35 carbs is pretty much my total for the day LOL

I always use skim milk with the protein powders.  To me it's worth it because of the extra protein I get from the milk and I think it makes it taste better and therefore I don't dread having to drink it. 

I use almond milk too.  I like it way better than milk, plus I don't get those bad aftereffects!!

Lani!!! How are you?? Man baby, you are rocking that sleeve!! 48 lbs. lost?!!! AWESOME JOB!!

No clue on your answer about the protein drinks since I won't start using them until maybe this Sat... but I just wanted to say "hi" and WTG!!!!!
