I think you can mix it with anything you want. I used to mix it with skim milk (I drink more premade shakes now) but I'm sure Water would be fine too.

You can mix it with anything you want. Be careful with hot liquids - if it is too hot it turns into a weird consistency. I mix the chocolate with skim milk & sometimes coffee. I use the strawberry in lemonade Crystal lite & Water.

You can probably mix it with whatever you want. I use primarily skim milk, some I've seen use soy milk or almond milk also with the chocolate. I really like the 2% milk better, but not on the hips. I like unflavored with Crystal Light lemonade also. Even though alot of physicians don't recommend Protein shakes, I drink 2 a day to keep my Protein levels up. It made a big difference for me in terms on losing weight more consistently and getting some muscle tone.

And as far as Protein Shakes go...I haven't found one that is better than unjury. But everyone's palate is different. Good luck!

What brand did you find that is unflavored? Where can I find it? I have tried 5 different kinds and I am tired of wasting my money. I can't seem to handle the taste of any of it!:mellow:

Thanks

unjury makes an unflavored version. They also have a chicken Soup version that isn't half bad. Just watch the temperature. The liquid can't be above 130F or the proteim will clump up. Not a pretty mixture.

I'm planning to mix the unflavored with some chicken or beef broth from Safeway for my dinner tonight. The broth has only 1g of Protein by itself, so adding the unflavored should help bring up the nutrition level.

As for the chocolate question: It's best with milk, but will work with Water (coffee is hot Water, after all.) Some people have mentioned adding SF pudding to it, to thicken it up some. I haven't tried that yet. Experiment and see what you come up with.

Good luck!

Hi!

I have mixed my strawberry sorbert one with water! Not as tasty, but it works!

Good Luck

Not a big fan of the strawberry but I drank it anyway to add variety while on the full liquid phase. I usually mixed it up & put in the fridge in the morning and drink for my afternoon "snack". As long as it was super cold it was great.

Followup to the unflavored mixed with beef broth I tried for dinner last night: Don't do it. It was nasty. The flavor was too intense, and no matter what I did to it to season/modify it, there was no way out. It went down the sink.

Ended up drinking a Muscle Milk Light shake for dinner. 20g Protein, 10g carbs. I'm finding the flavor is consistent, and it's quickly turning into the only shake flavor I can drink. I was a real fan of unjury pre-op, but for some reason post-op, I'm not feeling it nearly as much.

Anyone else finding their post-op taste buds are different?

I'm also finding my love of coffee is subsiding, too. Used to drink several cups every morning. Now I drink maybe a half cup, and I'm done. Just not into it. Since I live near Seattle, home of Starbucks and Tullys and a zillion other coffee roasters, I may be run out of town! LOL! :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
