I just tried the Unjury shake and i dont like it. It reminds me of the shakes i used when i did the Optifast diet. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Can anyone recommend a coupe of others i could try? Sara

Bummer.... Unjury is my favorite all the others were AWEFUL to me! I've learned that everyone can suggest a brand and flavor, but it comes down to everyone's taste buds ;) order lots of samples and try them all!!! My fav right now is Nectar's Double stuff cookie yummmmmo

There are several good ones available at Vitamin Shoppe:

For just a Protein Shake, Myofusion is probably one of the best tasting with lots of great flavor options and a solid profile. For more of a Meal Replacement I like LeanPro8, very good profile with healthy fats. vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry are all very good. I have heard good things about Syntrax Nectars but I have never tried them. Good thing about Vitamin Shoppe, if you do not like it bring it back and they will let you exchange it.

Dont be afraid of fats with Protein Shakes. They are usually high quality, omega3/6 and/or medium-chained glycerides. You need these especially since many essential Vitamins are fat solubile, meaning they are better absorbed when consumed with fats. You do not want sugar, but that is easy to avoid because most have very low sugar content.

I'm not crazy about any of the shakes so I add flavor to them.

vanilla shake: add a squirt of orange mio for a orange creamcycle taste. Or strawberry mio is good on it as well.

I add frozen berries and a little Trop50 orange juice to the unflavored mixes.

There's a lot you can do to add flavor.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
