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!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
