well I got my answer from the doctor today.....
You really are wasting your money. What is it about the protein shakes that your body can't tolerate? Is it the dairy? The whey? Before I spent money on the shots here are some things I would try. (but not knowing why you can't "tolerate" I may not be giving you good ideas...)
-NF cottage cheese
-greek yogurt mixed with SF pudding or jello (I do not like greek yogurt no matter what I have done with it, but there are many who do and the adding of the flavoring seems to be the way they go with it)
-1/4 c of dry ff powdered milk mised into a cup of tea or coffee
-double milk - that is a glass of skim milk with added powdered ff milk
-NSA carnation instant breakfast added to skim milk
-Low Carb protein hot chocolate (you can find it at www.dietdirect.com as well as Amazon. I enjoy it mixed into coffee and add different sugar free Torani syrups
-Click Mocha (added to a little more coffee and add sf peppermint syrup and a bit of sf whip cream it's just like the peppermint mochas from McDonalds
If I read where you are in your journey and why you can't tolerate the drinks I as well as others can offer you more ideas. The shots are expensive and they are not designed for those of us who had RNY. Others who take them might be getting enough protein from food sources and blood work can't really gage it.
Good luck!

What protein have you been taking? What do you mix it with?
What do you mean your system won't handle it?
If you can answer these questions- I may be able to help you :)
