Best Protein Powder...even Chicken Soup flavor



Recommended Posts

Hi guys -

I am almost a week post op - and was having a hard time with my Protein. The sugar free Protein drinks are horrid, with a bad aftertaste. I heard about powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury www.unjury.com before my surgery and ordered a sample pack. It came yesterday...and OMG - it is a life savor! The Protein is 21g and 2g Sugar - it actually tastes good. The chocolate taste like chocolate milk with no horrible aftertaste.

The prize though is the chicken Soup flavor - I mixed it in with a cup of chicken noodle Soup and it add a great richness to it PLUS 21G of protein! It would even be good on its own.

So if you are struggling...definitely check on out Unjury...get the sample pack so you can try it all out...its going to make things ALOT easier for me :) Wanted to share!

costco has some good Protein drinks--30 grams of protein which was one of the highest I could find. Calories are reasonable, too.

I'm been drinking Premier Protein shakes, you cant beat the 30g of Protein per serving. As far as taste, I like the Muscle Milk banana cream and oreo cream... after being on clear fluids for so long, it tastes divine!

I love Unjury! That's all I will use. It is amazing. I really don't like Protein Drinks at all due to that nasty aftertaste and Protein flavor. I gagged down Isopure in my clear stage, I tried some other stuff from GNC and Walmart and it all made me gag. I bought the Margaritaville smoothie maker and it is awesome. It crushes that ice down to a slurpee (icee) texture just like you buy at 7-11. The Chocloate splendor is great. I make it with 1/2 cup skim milk and ice, its just like a milk shake. I actually really like it. I also get the frozen berries in the freezer section and mix that with ice, the unflavored Unjury powder and 1/2 cup skim milk and it makes a great tasting smoothie. These are my life savor. I have been drinking them since I got off clears and will continue. I wont drink any other Protein Powder mixes... I found the one that is for me. UNJURY is awesome! I cant even taste the protein, and NO aftertaste. 21 grams protein, 0 sugar and 0 carbs. The chocolate isn't too chocolatey either which is great because I always liked my milkshakes light... like 1/2 vanilla 1/2 chocoloate. Worth every penny, especially with the Margaritaville mixer.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
