Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

First, I gotta say, I LOVE the taste of the powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury products...

However, I notice that I'm having "lactose intolerance symptoms" (won't be more specific than that) about 15 minutes after drinking them... I never have an issue with eating any dairy product, this seems to be the only lactose product causing symptoms...

Anyone else have a similar experience? Are they temporary that go away after your body gets used to it???

Please don't take this as a dig to Unjury, I love them and will continue to use them even though I have the symptoms... Just looking to see if anyone else had a similar issue...

It might be something else bothering you . It is kind of strange you have never had issues with dairy before now and then all the sudden with Unjury. Have you tried any other products? There are so many options and lots of dairy free as well. Best of Luck!

Try mixing the Unjury with Almond milk and see if that makes a difference.

You could also try doing a half dose, like half of a shake in the morning, and the other half mid-afternoon or so. I have the digestive problems you mention with most whey Protein isolate drinks (except Isopure) no matter what I mix it in, but in the past, a suggestion to me was to half my intake, did not work for me, but it may for you.

I am known to be lactose intolerant and I can use Unjury with no symptoms in Almond Milk. Higher in Calcium, low in calories and carbs. Tastes great!

I love Unjury. I notice that I have a little bit of an "issue" when I drink them. I have the opposite effect when I drink eas advantage.

Good luck with the problem.

I'm not lactose intolerant but I had an issue with the eas advantEDGE carb control drinks last week. I slowed down in drinking them and I'm okay now. I think it's just your body adjusting to such a high concentrated amount of protein... At least that's what I read online. Try the other suggestions, hopefully something works!!

My inside come to screaching halt on all Protein Shakes. I wasn't told I could eat oranges on my pre-op, but when I got sick right after Christmas I started eating 2 cuties a day and that helped A LOT. Things started moving so to speak. :P

Are you ok with Protein Shakes now? OMG, your surgery is tomorrow?!?! CONGRATULATIONS!! Do you think you'll be okay with Protein Shakes after surgery? If not, what will you do to supplement?

If I can keep eating fruit I will be ok. If not I will have to take something to make things "run" smooth. I am going to ask them tomorrow before I leave the hospital to see what they suggest. I know the pain meds will slow things down alot too. I had the same problem a couple weeks after my gall bladder surgery.

I think it may just be the body getting used to that much Protein after not having it for so long. Not sure

Thanks too BTW. I am very excited and nervous about tomorrow :D:o:blink:

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
