Hello everyone! I'm getting banded on October 3rd and I'm going out today to shop for my first two weeks! My nutritionist recommended I buy Isopure for protein...has anyone bought this ? I just want some feedback before i go out and buy it as it is quite pricey!!!

My doc recommended the juicy, but frozen into pop's for after surgery. That way you get the Protein and the taste good too. I hear the liquid is pretty thick but the powdered protein is good too. You can also try Matrix Mint Cookie and cream or Costco's protein too. Both are awesome!

The grape Isopure is not terrible. The worst part is it kind of has a weird after-taste. You should be able to buy one bottle and see if you like it. It does have a lot of Protein and I drank it when I needed to get in more protein than I could eat.

I bought pure Protein vanilla and mix it with pumpkin pie spice and vanilla. Today I mixed rasberry sugar free Jello in with the Protein Powder and it was good. The nutrionist told me also you could mix vanilla with sugar free orange for creamsicle. Just a couple ideas.

I like the Isopure Protein Drinks. I mix mine with 1/2 Water 1/2 Isopure. I also have to have it ice cold...I found a web site that you can order a variety box of 12 for $39.89 (about $3.32 a bottle)...www.luckyvitamin.com

Good luck!

I've only tried the fruit Isopure Protein drinks. Grape is definitely the best. (Think weak KoolAid.) Alpine Punch is alright too. Slight after taste to all, but not too bad. Green apple was beyond funky nasty to me. They are pricey though, but on buy one get one half off through the 27th at gnc... Just fyi.

I have tried the Isopure (I think it's Frosty Orange) Orange and the Alpine Punch. Both are good, but I drink them 1/2 Water 1/2 Isopure, and on a TON of ice! The weird after-taste seems to not exist when you mix it with water. They are a refreshing change from the thick Protein shakes!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
