Eating a lot of protein makes me sick

Zenkei18 Posts: 277 Joined: 2005/06/22	2006/02/18, 04:20 PM Ok, some days I will have around 3 shakes or so... which is ok for me because all the stuff I eat during the day is under my caloric limit. I will usually have some beef patties and chicken strips too which also have a lot of protein. Sometimes when I eat these things though, the next day my stomach is really bloated and I feel sick and sometimes get sick, having the chills or feeling really hot, and being sick to my stomach. What causes this? Even though it did wonders for me and my fat loss...

Maybe you just taking in too much food/protein shakes altogether. What's your shake consist of? Is it at certain times, like after your workout? Do you workout? -------------- Seize the day!

Also, you mentioned that consume patties and chicken fingers most of the times, you may want to eat different variety of food.
