Does anyone have favorite tips about how to use the unlflavored Proteins that really masks them? I tried crystal light and I was still too aware of it. I'm a whiner I know! I am just trying to be vigilant about getting the Protein in.

Thanks ya'll!

How much liquid are you adding to it? And also, what kind of crystal light? I add 8 oz. Water, 1/2 packet of crystal light to a scoop of Unjury unflavored, and that works for me. You could always dilute it and add a scoop to double the amount of water, and double the crystal light. Also, I found that mine doesn't taste great with the plain lemonade crystal light because it's almost TOO light, but it tastes good with the pink lemonade crystal light which has more flavor. Hope that helps a little!

I mix 1/2 scoop into yogurt or swiss miss diet cocoa.

Just be careful when adding to hot liquids - if the temp is over 140 degrees, it will clump up on you. I have made the Water just warm, mixed thoroughly and then heated it up a little more - no issues with clumping then.

(I use Any whey "Flavorless" Protein that I get from Amazon.)

Thanks, I'll try again. I'm having this weird day where food and drink all sound awful, so I was trying to make myself at least get Fluid and Protein in. I'll give it a go!

What about food flavourings?

I have coconut, vanilla and chocolate essence in the fridge which don't contain sugar... couldn't you mask them by making them taste of something you like? There must be loads of flavourings available.

(Forgive me if I'm way wrong on this one, just guessing!!)

Those definitely help - just like me with my diet cocoa mix.

I put unflavored Protein Powder in anything I could find that was sugar free. There is a Hawaiian punch that is sf, and sf gatoraide and power aide, besides the Walmart brand of crystal lite. I used the cranberry raspberry flavor.

Thanks to all for the postings. Will have surgery (lap band) in May 2010. I am trying to get samples and recipes for my diet post surgery. I will like to find a liquid Multi-Vitamin with minerals.

      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! 😞
