Protein Shake Preference/ Unjury??



Recommended Posts

I know this has been posted one too many times before this, but I am desperatly on the hunt for a Protein shake that fulfills my doctors requirements, tastes good, and has enough Protein to keep me satisfied. My doctor recommends I get Protein shakes that are 110 calories MAX, 3 grams of fat, and 4 carbs MAX. I tried the EAS advantEDGE Carb Control which I liked but it was 17 grams of protein and found myself starving afterwards. I'm taking any and all recommendations!

I've read a lot about Unjury... anyone tried it?

I am using the Syntrax Nectar chocolate truffle powder. I buy it from Amazon.com. A scoop has zero fats and zero carbs & zero sugars. It has 100 calories (powder alone) and 23 grams of Protein. I add this to a cup of skim fat free milk which adds 80 calories. I actually like it and it tastes like carnation instant Breakfast to me. I am on Day 12 of the pre-op diet so I have come to love this stuff!

I love unjury. I am over a year post op and I still have an Unjury chocolate Splendor shake every single morning for breakfast.

If you mix it with 1 cup of skim milk (which I do), it's 183 calories total.

The Unjury powder alone is:

100 calories

.5g of fat

4g of carbs

20g of Protein

Have you tried their chicken Soup flavored Protein Powder?

Unjury chocolate splendor is my all time fave, and Peanut Butter cookie, from Nashua. I mix my shakes with Almond milk, unsweetened. Same flavor only only 30 cals per cup for the milk and extra Calcium.< /p>

I tried many different Protein Shakes and the only ones I like.. (yes, I actually LIKE to drink them!) are Muscle Milk and Muscle Milk Lite. Hope you find something you LIKE! :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
