 I am about 6 weeks out and bought the premier protein shakes from Costco.  My day consisted of I had a protein hot cocoa this a.m, cottage cheese for bf, some water aafter thirty min, chili for lunch, and waited thirty minutes and drank a premier protein shake. Felt horrible right after, dizzy, light headed, hot, nascous.... am I lactose??? I am so confused. these have a great amount of protein and they are cheap.... help!!!!

I use EAS low carb shakes twice a day, with egg with greek yogurt plain and a little milk for lunch and some more shake and greek yo and cream of aspargus soup.  It could be the shake or the chili did the dizzy,light headed action.  I was not eating enough protein so I stepped up the protein, and I feel better.  No enough protein can make you sick or weak.

 I have been trying to step up the protein but for some reason after drinking these shakes, I felt faintly, maybe this one just doesn't agree with me. Kinds sad I bought a costco size lol! I really like the taste too. What if I chase it between sips with water? Any other suggestions? Does chili have a light headed dizzy affect? I only had 6 spoonfuls total ...maybe!

 I'd try one more time and if same happens these are not for you.  Costco has very good return policy.

You might want to try the EAS low carb shake - Walmart has a pak of 4 for $5.00.  The chocolate fudge is very good.  Others have said the vanilla is good.  I love them.  17 percent protein.

 Thanks Karen, I will try it again...maybe after a different meal with more dense protein... My sensitive tummy is strange sometimes!

Hi, I use the Premier Shakes and haven't had the problem you are experiencing. I spoke with customer sevice at Costco and they said that I could use up to as many as half of the drinks and still return it for a full refund if I didn't like it or it didn't sit well with me. Good luck with it but I would give it a couple more tries. They really have great protein and are so low carb. Take care.

I've been drinking 2 of those a day and haven't had a problem. If the next one you drink causes the same reaction, just return them. It's great that Costco has such an easy return policy.

Maybe it's too much at one time.  Try drinking only half, wait a couple hours and drink the other half.  Shakes still make me nauseated sometimes and it's because I try and drink them too fast.  Just a thought.

The only time I had a similar reaction was when I slammed one of those protein bullets in about 3 gulps. I almost barfed. Try drinking the next one slower and if it happens again maybe there is something in that brand that doesn't agree with you.
