"Shaking" things up with those protein shakes ...



Recommended Posts

I wonder if anybody else has found any types of allowed flavorings that make their Protein Drinks actually FUN to take?

I don't have a problem with what I've been using (Body Fortress in the chocolate and vanilla ... made the mistake of buying the strawberry -- don't do it :-), but they got boring.

Yesterday opened my can of powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored (unjury.com), added it to 8 oz. of milk and then threw in about a tablespoon of banana cream flavored sugar free, fat free Jell-O pudding mix (powder). Shook it, let it sit for five minutes, and voila ... banana cream milkshake!

It was marvelous.

I've got the butterscotch and one other flavor (can't remember which) of Jell-O pudding power (SF/FF) in my closet and am looking forward to trying those with the Unjury unflavored too.

Oh -- one other thing -- especially if you're still on "clears" pre or post op: the Unjury unflavored Protein is terrific when added to chicken, beef or vegetable broth. Be careful not to heat the broth too much, though, or the Unjury will lump together and not dissolve. And then it is, quite simply, gross.

Glad I'm banded ... looking forward to my first fill!:)

Thanks for the suggestions. I have been lax in my Protein tracking. I really dislike the shakes, so this is VERY helpful.

I use Isopures Protein, and like to add a yogurt to it. It creams it up (I mix w/ water) and adds an interesting flavor combination. Lately been using Activia, and that's been a life saver - if you know what I mean :).

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
